One Mission. Two Exciting Events.

Maryland State Fairgrounds, Exhibition Hall
2200 York Road, Lutherville-Timonium, MD  21093

You’re invited to celebrate the 20th Annual Empty Bowls with two unforgettable events over one weekend that bring our community together around a shared mission. Start the weekend of April 17 off with Candlelight & Clay, an elegant evening of music and fine food that friends and donors of St. Vincent de Paul of Baltimore won’t want to miss. Then, experience an event for families, friends, and foodies alike on April 18—the Empty Bowls Family Festival, filled with unlimited soup, fun, and kid-friendly entertainment.
