Under the leadership of David Gamber, a ceramic artist and a Moorestown Friends School Art Teacher, a total of 20 children and five supervising adults gathered in the art studio of Moorestown Friends Upper School on March 6 to make bowls for the Empty Bowl Dinner of the Friends Enrichment Program (FEP). The dinner will be held on Sunday, April 3, in the D’Olier Room of the Moorestown Friends Meeting house. The bowls will be displayed at dinner, along with bowls made by ceramic artists.
For the cost of a freewill donation, guests will buy bowls and eat a dinner of homemade soup and bread. There will be two dinner seatings: the first, from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., and the second, from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. From 6:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., the Greater South Jersey Chorus will sing in the Meetinghouse under the direction of Ken Ewan.
Donations of soup, bread and juice will be gratefully accepted.
Proceeds will benefit the FEP scholarship fund that provides scholarships for financially underserved children to take music lesson, enroll in art classes or sports clinics, and attend summer camp at no cost to their parents.
To reserve seats, please call Monique Begg at (856) 235–3983, or the meeting office at (856) 235–1561.
