Empty Bowls 2006 will be held on Friday, Nov. 3 from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Melrose Avenue School.

The second annual event will raise funds to help feed those in need.

The evening will allow participants to select a hand-crafted ceramic bowl, which will be filled with hearty soups or stews. Tickets are $15 for adults, $10 for children under 17 and everyone gets to keep their bowl.

There will be a silent auction of bowl-related art, music and fun.
