From Empty Bowls to Full Plates

The Empty Bowls event hosted by Newbury Court was a HUGE success. Over 300 bowls were sold and over 400 cups of delicious soup were served. And all to benefit Open Table – the proceeds from the Empty Bowls will provide food to fill a lot of plates this winter!

Open Table pantry volunteer Kim Kelly and Pantry Diector Rose Saia were top bidders at the silent auction. Kim coveted the bunny-roo (a hare that Aussie Kim dubbed a kangaroo) and Rose took home this gentle elephant.

We cannot thank the wonderful artists (residents and staff), organizers, and volunteers for this wonderful event full of smiles, soup and sunshine!
