Empty Bowls Thunder Bay

10/21/2025

Thank you tbnewswatch.com for sending Emma to cover our event. We appreciate your ongoing support through the years at all of our fundraisers, including our pandemic drive-throughs! The whole story is available on the tbnewswatch website and on their YouTube channel (October 19) starting at 8:51 in the video. Thank you for giving a shout out to Alan Moon as he retires from pottery. The only thing missing was our founder Pyteke - and we all know she does the best interviews. She'll be back next year and we'll see you then Emma! Lakehead Unitarian Fellowship Shelter House Thunder Bay Potters' Guild

We at Empty Bowls couldn't agree more! Chef Tanner supports us every time we ask....including making us pots and pots of soup each year! We were so pleased that he joined us last night at our 26th annual event...he served soup with his son's which was so special!

Today we celebrate 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗳 𝗧𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝘀, who has been part of the RFDA Thunder Bay Regional Food Distribution Association family since 2019. From serving countless meals to teaching cooking skills that empower others, Chef Tanner continues to make a lasting impact in our community.
He’s one of our strongest pillars - always kind, helpful, and incredibly organized in the kitchen. With the addition of our new training kitchen, Chef Tanner will continue sharing the life skill of cooking so that no one goes hungry.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂, 𝗧𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿, 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼!

While we are pleased that the College Support Staff have reached a tentative deal, however 2025 Empty Bowls will remain at the Moose Hall.
