Thank you for attending Empty Bowls!
We would like to thank everyone who came out to support Gleaners Community Food Bank of Southeastern Michigan at our 27th annual Empty Bowls fundraiser on February 15. The nearly 500 people who came through our doors purchased 780 donated bowls. The event raised $11,840 for Gleaners, where each dollar provides three meals for someone in need.
Thank you too to dBusiness' Patrick Gloria for dropping by! Check out more of his photos and an article by Grace Turner here.

Historic Inspiration for Pewabic's Hex Paperweight
Black Lives Matter.
BLACK LIVES MATTER.
Pewabic has operated in Detroit for over a century. We recognize the inequity our Black community faces on a daily basis and we share the grief and horror following the recent killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and far too many others.
The challenges currently facing this nation are severe and will require all of us working together to overcome. But progress will only be made when we recognize that the pain and suffering has not been equally shared. Black Lives Matter. We stand with those calling for an end to racism and injustice. We know that we have much more work to do ourselves, but we will continue our efforts to build an organization that is welcoming to and fully reflective of Detroit's diverse community.
We’ve been mostly quiet this week, listening, but we believe that art can be a powerful vehicle for understanding. In that spirit, we wanted to share some of the work being created by Kyle and Kelly Phelps, two of our favorite artists working in clay.
