POTTSTOWN – ArtFusion’s popular Soup Bowl fundraiser returns for a third year this Saturday from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. The Soup Bowl fundraiser will take place at 254 E. High St. in the ArtFusion gallery. This year’s event will take over the entire building with different soups set up on two floors with more seating to accommodate a lot more soup lovers.
Guests will be able to try an amazing variety of home-cooked soups created by local volunteer chefs and donated by local restaurants. Lunch will also include bread, beverages and homemade desserts. As a thank you for supporting the fundraiser, each guest will take home a handcrafted ceramic bowl, created by volunteers from the community throughout the previous year.
Each bowl is an artistic collaboration: one volunteer created the bowl from clay and another added the colorful decorations. Guest artists included Girl Scout troops, high school students, volunteers from local businesses, members of the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program and more.
Last year’s event was sold out, but tickets for this year’s event are still available for purchase at the gallery, and also online at artfusion19464.org. The number of tickets is limited, so ArtFusion recommends purchasing tickets early. All proceeds benefit the nonprofit community art school.
ArtFusion 19464 is a 501(c)3 non-profit community art center located at 254 E. High St. in downtown Pottstown. The school offers day, evening and weekend classes to all ages. The goal of these classes is to help students develop their creative skills through self-expression and independence. ArtFusion’s gallery hosts rotating shows featuring local artists. The gallery also sells handcrafted, one-of-a-kind gift items. The gallery is open Tuesday through Friday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. The gallery is closed Sunday and Monday.
