Looks like this bird is heading out early to the "Empty Bowls Festival" in Airdrie, next Saturday, June 12th. It is a fundraiser for the local Airdrie Foodbank. A local potter, in town builds a multitude of bowls and Simply Ceramics is involved too. Artists, students and residents paint the bowls. Several restaurants in Airdrie donate the soup and Voila, for $20.00, you get to pick a bowl, get the soup, eat, and keep the bowl. How cool is that? Also they will be having a silent auction and artists doing live demos in white tents. The Airdronadack chairs that have been painted will be on display as well. Last year I believe they raised around 10,000.00 in just a few hours. Great things can happen when a Community works together! Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that "Empty Bowls" will be held at Nose Creek Park on Main St. in Airdrie.
