CCC&TI ceramics students help support Yokefellow’s “Empty Bowls” fundraising event

HUDSON, NC (November 4, 2016)…Students from the Ceramics I and Ceramics II classes on the Caldwell Campus of Caldwell Community College and Technical Institute volunteered their artwork to help support Yokefellow’s recent Empty Bowls fundraising event. Handmade bowls were thrown by CCC&TI Art Instructor Laura Aultman and the clay surfaces were designed by the students. Eighteen bowls were donated to the event. “Empty Bowls: Feeding Our Neighbors” is a collaboration between artists, who create and donate handmade bowls, and local chefs, who prepare meals, in an effort to raise proceeds to support local food pantries. Guests to the event make a donation and receive a hand-crafted bowl and a meal. Yokefellow’s Empty Bowls fundraiser was held on Oct. 22 at William Lenoir Middle School.
