Empty Bowls Art Auction

Images shown are a sample from our 2021 Empty Bowls event.

Pioneer Center’s Empty Bowls event is a silent art auction providing an opportunity for the community to bid on one-of-a-kind artwork from regional artisans. The unique artwork designed for the event displays hope, resiliency, support, strength, help and encouragement in all different art mediums. The fundraiser benefits the McHenry County PADS Homeless shelter and helps us meet the growing needs of our community by supporting services and programs for those experiencing homelessness.
