Champlain Valley Union High School invites community members to slurp selflessly at its inaugural Empty Bowls Dinner. Organized by CVU student and prolific potter Teryn Hytten, this bountiful buffet benefits the Hinesburg Food Shelf. Guests select a ceramic bowl — lovingly handmade at the CVU pottery studio — and dig their spoons into a delightful array of soups, accompanied by bread donated from local bakeries and ice cream from Shelburne’s Sisters of Anarchy. The evening also includes a silent auction, live music by CVU students and talks by experts on food insecurity.
