Paint-a-bowl

Come help us paint bowls for the 2024 Empty Bowls Fundraiser! This is an opportunity to get creative with your friends and family while helping to raise funds to fight hunger in Cook County. Participants will use brush-on glazes to paint a bowl that will then be glazed and fired at the Art Colony ceramics studio and donated to the Empty Bowl Soup Dinner Fundraiser on November 19, 2025.

Make Your Own Magnet

Create your own custom refrigerator magnets using collage papers and magazines. Participants will assemble their artwork, adhere their unique design to a magnetic sheet, and then cut out the shape they want.

Suminagashi

Suminagashi, or “floating ink,” is the process of marbling plain paper with water and ink to transform it into a vibrant and colorful design. It originated in Japan as early as the 12th century. Create your own unique print and learn more about this art form.
