Annual Empty Bowls Fundraiser

Fill a handmade bowl with local ice cream and support the Hamilton Food Cupboard! Proceeds from this event will support the Food Cupboard's important work of addressing hunger in our community.


During the event, you'll select a bowl that was handmade right here at Village Clay with clay donated by our friends at Sheffield Pottery and, after enjoying a scoop of ice cream provided by Gilligan's, take your bowl home — a functional piece of art commemorating our community's care for each other.

Donate $25 or more to receive a ticket for a handmade bowl.
Pre-purchase on our website—limited supply, while they last!
