Empty Bowls 2026

In the state of Utah, one in eight people struggle with hunger. The mission of St. Vincent de Paul Dining Hall is to decrease that statistic by providing meals to those in need and those impacted by homelessness. Every year, Catholic Community Services of Utah and FFKR Architects host Empty Bowls, an event designed to benefit St. Vincent de Paul Dining Hall. The 2026 Empty Bowls event will be held from 6:00 to 8:00 pm on Friday, September 11. Join us at FFKR Architects for an evening of drinks, live music, and free food. No registration or ticket purchase is necessary. Handmade bowls will be available for purchase starting at $20. All beverage and bowl profits will benefit St. Vincent de Paul Dining Hall's mission of feeding those in our community impacted by hunger.
