Passing along some information about a worthy cause in Itasca County:

Coming together as a community to help feed hungry people is at the heart of the Empty Bowls Project. And what a community it is!

Teachers and students, potters and restaurateurs, bakers and citizen volunteers, non-profits and for-profits. People of all ages and experience levels make the bowls that, come March 6, will be purchased along with a bowl of soup and a slice of bread by people who come to “The Mac” in support of a good cause.

Friday, March 6 from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. at the MacRostie Art Center in Grand Rapids. They’ve got a blog. Those are so hot right now.

And let the call go forth; I’m happy to pass along PSAs like this, time permitting, if someone wants to send them to me. I prefer to focus on Northern Minnesota, but would run anything I think might be of interest to my eclectic collection of readers.
