Empty Bowls is a beloved community event supporting local hunger relief in support of both Good Shepherd Center and Mother Hubbard’s Cupboard. We are excited to share that it will return to Wilmington on March 13, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the First Baptist Activities Center on Independence Boulevard.

Each ticket includes one selection from a variety of specialty soups donated by local restaurants, an artisan bowl of your choosing provided by local artists, and the opportunity to share a meal in fellowship with your neighbors in support of Mother Hubbard’s Cupboard’s food pantry and Good Shepherd Center’s soup kitchen.

Tickets and Sponsorships available now!
