The Annual Empty Bowls McKinney feeds a lot more than a hundred people. The donations provide funding for Community Lifeline Center and the Community Garden Kitchen. This year’s turnout was amazing. I can’t wait to hear how much money was raised.
From its humble beginnings in the community room at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church, the event has exploded into a county wide gala at the McKinney Performance Art enter on the Square.
Bowls, bowls, everywhere bowls. These were just a few of the Event bowls offered. Everyone who purchased a ticket got to pick out a bowl. But, extra bowls could be purchased for $20. A lot of folks were buying four or five extra for gifts. Every $5 provides a meal for someone in need.Helene, Sid, and I had a lot of fun. The soups and desserts were great and the band was cool!We ran into a lot of friends and awesome artists. Jerry and Patricia didn’t win the high bid on my bowl, but they had a good time supporting Empty Bowls.And the event wouldn’t be complete without a Murphy sighting. ❤️❤️
