​​WHAT IS THE EMPTY BOWLS PROJECT:
The Empty Bowls Project is an event held annually across the globe to raise funds for food charities and to teach the community that hunger exists among our neighbors in need. The Dripping Springs Empty Bowls Project benefits our food pantry, Helping Hands, a non profit that originated nearly 40 years ago to serve the Dripping Springs area. At the Empty Bowls Project, families and friends come together to select from 1,200 beautiful ceramic bowls created by area artists and fill them with gourmet soups donated by 30 local restaurants. Talented musicians entertain patrons while they enjoy their delicious soups, breads and desserts, all for a donation of the purchase of a bowl. The bowls are a keepsake from the event and a reminder of the less fortunate members in our community who have food insecurities.​You are invited to be a part of the Empty Bowls Project by attending the event and/or being a sponsor. Together we can help reduce the increasing number of people in our community with food insecurities.​​
