Bountiful Bowls:  Imagine a World Without Hunger
Inspired by God's gifts and nature's bounty, Indianapolis religious,
educational and art institutions have come together to raise public
consciousness and address the problem of hunger.  The bountiful bowl is
our symbol of caring and sustenance.  Artists will create original artworks
that express their interpretation of the bountiful bowl.  These works will be
publicly displayed and auctioned with the proceeds provided to Gleaners
Food Bank.  No hungry person should have an empty bowl.

We invite all artists and student artists Kindergarten-12 to participate
in this event by submitting a bowl as we imagine a world without hunger.

I am attaching a project description and student entry form. I hope that
when you are thinking about your lessons you might include this project in
your plans.

Thanks for your consideration,
Bev Staub
