19th Annual Empty Bowls

The family-friendly event will feature handcrafted bowls that guests can take home. For each bowl purchased for $25, guests will also enjoy delicious soup and bread from local restaurants, catering companies and hotels.

Since 2000, Empty Bowls has raised nearly $600,000 to support families and individuals right here in San Antonio who are homeless or on the brink of housing disaster.

Because of the unique nature of the event, we are not able to pre-sell bowls or tickets, with the exception of the Souper Bowl VIP admission.

Souper Bowl: VIP guests will enjoy 30-minute early access to select their bowls. Ticket price includes up to two bowls; additional bowls may be purchased for $25 each. (Souper Bowl ticket allows early admission for one guest.)

Invisi-Bowl: Your bowl might be “invisible,” but your impact certainly isn’t. Warm the hearts of SAMMinistries’ clients with the purchase of an “Invisi-Bowl.” This stay at home option supports SAMMinistries and their service to San Antonio’s homeless (This option is a donation to SAMMinistries with no goods or services received.)

Additional free parking available at the Baptist Medical Center garage (118 Dallas St.).

Valero Texas Open will match 7% of all event proceeds to help SAMMinistries serve more families and individuals in need.
