35th Annual Empty Bowl Soup Supper


Shenandoah Alliance for Shelter’s longest-running fundraiser, the Empty Bowl Soup Supper, embodies our mission by bringing artisans and community members together to support local households in need. Share in the warmth of community as we gather for a simple meal among friends, old and new.
 
Join us Friday, November 20th from 5:30–7:30 PM in the Central High School Cafeteria for this cherished community tradition.
 Tickets:

  • Adults: $45
  • Students (18 & under): $25

Event Highlights:
 
 *Doors open at 5:30 PM. Bowls are available on a first-come, first-served basis, so arrive early if you have your eye on a special one!
 *Each ticket includes a handcrafted bowl to take home, plus two servings of soup, rolls, cookies, and beverage options.
 *Enjoy the Silent Auction, featuring fantastic selections donated by local businesses, restaurants, artisans, and crafters.
 *Take part in the friendly competition of the Bake Shop Dessert Auction and see who wins the honor of “best baked good.”
 
 To help keep the auction running smoothly, we ask that winners—or someone attending on their behalf—be present to pay for and collect their items. All items must be taken home at the end of the event.
