Will Throw for Food

Ceramics students at Marshall University have crafted 1,200 bowls in preparation for tomorrow’s 11th annual Empty Bowls food bank fundraiser in Huntington, WV. Assistant Professor of Art Frederick Bartolovic MFA 06 CR is once again leading the students in their drive to feed the hungry. “It is a great honor to organize this production effort,” he said. “The problem of hunger in our own community is at times hard to believe. Empty Bowls is an opportunity for Marshall students to help the community, to see that art can make a difference!” Visitors at the event will purchase bowls for $15 each, and the food bank’s director of development estimates that the proceeds will provide more than 100,000 meals in the coming year.
