The third annual Seattle Empty Bowls fundraiser is Saturday, April 16th and organizers are looking for volunteers. The fundraiser dinner takes place this year at the Nordic Heritage Museum from 4 to 7 p.m. For a $15 suggested donation, you can buy one of the creative bowls painted by local artists and have it filled with hot soup and bread. All proceeds benefit the Ballard Food Bank.
