“We owe this year’s enormous success to the generosity of our community – from our committed sponsors – to more than 1,500 volunteers – to the Oregon Potters Association and Oregon Glass Guild who raise funds to benefit Oregon Food Bank at their Empty Bowls Booth – to festival-goers who donated $8 and two cans of food at the gate,” said Rachel Bristol, executive director, Oregon Food Bank.
