Home Again LA's Annual Empty Bowl luncheon is a poignant event that melds artistic expression with a call to action against homelessness.

By partaking in this event, you not only get to cherish the beauty of handcrafted bowls but also contribute to a nourishing foundation for those in need. Each bowl, an emblem of warmth and community support, underscores the difference we can make together.
