Empty Bowls is an international effort to fight hunger, implemented locally by the Ocoee Middle Art Club.

You are invited to purchase a ticket in advance for $20 to attend our Empty Bowls event. Tickets will not be sold at the door . The event is sponsored by the OMS Art Club. The funds that we raise will be donated to the Caring place to assist them in their fight against hunger in our community. One ticket purchases a meal for your family and also a  ceramic bowl made by one of our students to keep as an everyday reminder that there will always be Empty Bowls in the world.
