The Friends Enrichment Program for underserved, financially disadvantaged Moorestown children will hold its annual Empty Bowl Dinner Fundraiser on Sunday, March 30 in the Moorestown Friends Meetinghouse, 118 East Main Street. The first dinner sitting runs from 5 to 6 p.m., and is followed by a chorus performance, from 6 to 6:30 p.m. The second dinner sitting runs from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Open to the general public, the event is an opportunity for FEP children to greet guests, and to sell the bowls they made and painted at an FEP workshop led by David Gamber, a ceramic artist and a Moorestown Friends School art teacher.
For a freewill donation, guests will select and buy a handmade ceramic bowl, eat a dinner of homemade soup, bread, and juice, and enjoy a Greater South Jersey chorus performance.
Proceeds will be split 50/50 between the Moorestown Ministerium Live Civilly Food Pantry and the FEP scholarship for underserved children to attend summer camp, enroll in art classes or sports clinics, or take private music lessons at no cost to FEP parents.
Reservations are advised. To reserve seats, please call the Moorestown Meeting office at (856) 235–1561.
