A Creative Remembrance to all that has been lost to Covid-19.
Art is therapy. It soothes your soul, brings joy, gets you contemplating. Art affects how your heart beats and how you breathe, how you sleep and how you wake. The Healing Wings art installation is an invitation to celebrate those we have lost and to enjoy the calm garden in Mesilla.
Many individuals created the Healing Wings Art installation.
Since 1992, the Potters' Guild has partnered with El Caldito Soup Kitchen and St. Paul's United Methodist Church to address hunger in Las Cruces. Potters of all levels come together to hand craft bowls and to volunteer for the fundraiser held in October of each year. The Las Cruces Empty Bowls is the longest running fundraiser in New Mexico and voted the Best Fundraiser in Las Cruces each year!
Sadly, hunger remains in Las Cruces and the need for Empty Bowls has not lessened. El Caldito Soup Kitchen relies on the Empty Bowls funds to help offer thousands of meals each year.
Contribute so that the Guild may purchase clay and other materials for the event. Funds are donated directly to El Caldito. Thank you for helping to feed the hungry!
