Good Samaritan Ministries’ Empty Bowls Project returns for its 12
th year on Thursday, April 29, and like last year, the event will follow a drive-through format. Bowls will be available from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the GSM Food Warehouse, located at 305 Clark Street.
“Back in early January when we had to make a lot of decisions we were still in the middle of a virus surge,” said GSM Executive Director Leesa Stephens. “So our board felt that going ahead and doing another drive-by type event would be the easiest to manage. We usually start getting calls in December, people wanting to book a bowl painting party, but we only had two calls – one in December and one January. We felt that was a signal from the community that they recognized things weren’t really the same.”
