Empty Bowl Fundraiser



Westmont, IL - For the past six years, an art teacher from Maercker School District 60 has organized and hosted a fundraiser benefitting Westview Hills Middle School’s arts program as well as various local organizations. Dubbed the Empty Bowl fundraiser, the event began with an afternoon of pottery painting Saturday, when District 60 parents, students and families joined together and painted their own pieces of pottery. Art teacher and fundraiser leader Josh Vance then takes the pieces, glazes them in his kiln and will present them back to participants at a formal dinner Dec. 7. For this year’s Empty Bowl fundraiser, Vance chose the West Suburban Humane Society as a co-beneficiary. He said every year he tries to find a different charity to help out.  www.fundraising-ideas.org
