Empty Bowl is our annual dinner fundraiser celebrating the important work of the Edmonds Food Bank. This fun-filled evening brings our community together to support our food distribution programs, which focus on food access, dignity, and community care.
Guests will enjoy dinner featuring locally made soup from Table for 12, Chef Dane and PNW Catering, bread from Cottage Community Bakery and salad from Ristorante Machiavelli, along with fine wine from Jeff Uncorked and a signature cocktail from Niles Peacock. The evening also includes lively games, raffles, and every attendee takes home a beautiful, hand-crafted bowl made by local artists.
Each year, Empty Bowl raises critical funds that help ensure everyone in our community has access to nutritious food. This year our goal is to raise $300,000!
