Today in Western North Carolina, more than 155,000 people are facing an empty bowl every month. But you can help fill those bowls and become part of a collective effort to end hunger in WNC at MANNA FoodBankâs 22nd Annual Empty Bowls event!  Â
A fusion of creativity and compassion, Empty Bowls serves as a poignant reminder that, while art has the power to uplift and inspire, it can also serve as a platform for raising awareness about the very real problem of hunger across our mountains. Guests select a bowl handmade by local artisans and take with them a seasonal meal of delicious soups, breads, and dessert. The souvenir bowl that guests take home reminds them of the many WNC neighbors that are currently struggling to afford groceries.
Almost every part of the event is donated, including the event space, food, and local pottery and art. This allows MANNA to use event proceeds for our critical food distribution programs, which are currently reaching 155,000 food insecure neighbors every month across our 16-county service area, including the Qualla Boundary. Every dollar raised can help provide food for 4 meals. Since 2002, the collective generosity of our Empty Bowls guests, potters, sponsors, culinary partners, and everyone who has ever had a hand in the event, has allowed MANNA to provide the equivalent of 3.6 MILLION MEALS across Western North Carolina.
COLLECTORâS CORNER
In addition to the souvenir soup bowls that ticket holders select, guests may purchase special works of high-end craft and art at the Collectorâs Corner. Collectorâs Corner items are both functional and gallery-quality pieces selected by the artists. 100% of the proceeds from Collectorâs Corner sales go directly to supporting MANNAâs mission of ending hunger in WNC. The public is invited to shop the Collectorâs Corner, even if they are not able to attend the Empty Bowls event.
TICKETS
MANNA hosts its annual Empty Bowls event in a walk-through format. Guests choose a one-hour time window that best suits their schedule, then arrive at the DoubleTree during that time window to select their bowl, choose their soups, and pick up bread + dessert. Guests can choose a one-hour time window any time between 10 AM and 6 PM, and can arrive any time during their chosen one-hour window. Both limited seating for those who would like to enjoy their meal in person AND limited curbside service for those who wish to remain in their cars are available.
Adult Ticket: $45Â (includes your choice of one souvenir pottery bowl handmade by a local artist, your choice of three soups/stews/chowders packaged to go, and bread + dessert packaged to go)
Kids Package: $10Â (includes one souvenir kidâs bowl handmade by a local artist and other pint-sized goodies)
Fur Kids Package: $30Â (guests choose a dog or cat package; includes one souvenir pottery pet bowl handmade by a local artist, yummy treats for your furry friend, and other fun surprises)

Hella Good Dance Party
Sep 16 @ 10:00 pm
Little Jumbo
Imagine this: itâs 2001 and youâre seeing No Doubtâs video for Hella Good for the first time. Maybe youâre sitting on a carpeted floor eating pop tarts and watching cable TV when it happens. Your aesthetic ideals have shifted since the matrix came out a couple years back and you find yourself wondering what it takes to become a badass. Quickly you determine that it has a lot to do with motorcycles, jet skis, wet looking hair and wearing black. You donât even know about Evenescence yet but pop music is about to take some real dips into heavy riffs and darker themes. Youâre for itâit makes you feel alive. Letâs run that one back, shall we?
