About the Event
Celebrating its 22nd year, Empty Bowls is a fundraiser dedicated to addressing hunger in our local community.
In collaboration with the Kawartha Potters Guild, One City is thrilled to join as a partner for the 2026 event for the first time. With the conclusion of the YWCA Nourish Food Program, which had been the beneficiary for the past 21 years, all proceeds will now support One City’s daily meal program at Trinity Community Centre. Our kitchen serves over 250 meals each day, and last year alone provided over 93,000 meals to members of our community. The need continues to grow, and this event plays a meaningful role in helping us meet it.
With a ticket purchase, you will receive a handmade artisanal bowl of your choice from a wide selection by the Kawartha Potters Guild and enjoy delicious food from fantastic local vendors, including restaurants such as:
