Mountain Road School Fundraiser To Fight World Hunger09:25AM / Wednesday, October 29, 2008
The students, teachers and families of Mountain Road School invite the community to join them for a special meal to help end world hunger.
The fourth annual Empty Bowls Dinner will be held at 6pm on Wednesday, November 19th in the Abode of the Message Dining Room, 5 Abode Road, New Lebanon, NY.
With a donation of $15 for adults and $5 for children, guests will receive a meal of homemade soup and bread, and choose from a selection of unique handcrafted ceramic bowls to use at the dinner and to take home.
This year Mountain Road School has collaborated with the Darrow School to create exquisite hand made bowls. Children from preschool through grade six worked with Darrow School’s hands-to-work students under the tutelage of Mona Seno, Darrow School’s art department chair and ceramic instructor. Each handmade bowl, made from donated Sheffield Pottery clay, is impressed with natural items: autumn leaves, twigs, pine needles, bark, or berries and then fired and glazed.
Proceeds from the fundraiser will be donated to Charlie's Pantry in New Lebanon and Oxfam America. The Empty Bowls Dinner raises awareness of local and global hunger while allowing children the chance to give selflessly for the benefit of those in need locally and internationally. Special thanks go to Darrow School, The Abode of the Message and Sheffield Pottery for supporting the event.
Service Learning is a critical component of the curriculum at Mountain Road School, according to Kathleen Bailer, Director. "By creating the bowls, preparing the soup and bread, decorating the tables and providing a song and blessing for the meal, the children truly internalize what it means to give selflessly for the benefit of those in need," Ms. Bailer says.
