This spring, Medway will join the global movement to combat hunger through the Empty Bowls project. On May 7th from 6-7 p.m., Medway High School will host Empty Bowls, an event featuring handmade ceramic bowls crafted by the school’s talented student artists. Attendees can purchase the bowls and proceeds from the event will benefit the Medway Village Food Pantry, helping to provide essential food and personal goods to those in need in the community.

With the funds raised, the Medway Village Food Pantry will continue its vital mission of providing essential meals and services to individuals and families. In 2024, the organization served over 257,000 meals to those facing food insecurity, and this event will help ensure that this critical work continues.

This event will coincide with the Medway High School Spring Art Exhibit, showcasing the creativity of students while supporting a meaningful cause. The Empty Bowls project, which has raised millions worldwide to fight hunger, offers attendees the opportunity to purchase beautiful, unique ceramic bowls and contribute directly to the fight against food insecurity. These bowls will serve as a powerful reminder of the many neighbors in our community who are struggling with food insecurity, and each bowl purchased contributes directly to providing meals and support to those in need.

“We are thrilled to bring Empty Bowls to Medway,” said Noelle Jackson, Medway High School Art Teacher. “This event not only highlights the incredible talent of Medway’s student artists but also provides our community with a chance to make a real difference. By purchasing a bowl, attendees will be supporting the Medway Village Food Pantry, which helps so many families in our area.”

Join us for an evening of art, community, and giving back. The event is free to attend, and guests are encouraged to bring their friends and family to show their support.
