I’d like to invite each district to organize an Empty Bowls event in their town/city this April. Together, we can create a "Bowls Trail" that spans Berkshire County.
At Mount Everett, we will utilize the Hexagon Project platform. In addition to bowls, we will make hexagon shaped flower vases, serving dishes, candelholders, etc. for a community dinner/fundraiser.
Some of our work will be submitted to Living the Change Berkshires, as part of their 2024 Climate visions exhibit at Berkshire Museum. Our project is connected with lessons in environmental science, in collaboration with culinary and science teachers as well as local nonprofits such as Greenagers and Flying Deer.
If there is enough participation, I’d like to expand this idea next year to include local restaurants in collaboration. Connect with me (Steph Graham) if you're interested in organizing your own empty bowls fundraiser this year or in the future.
