Festival of the Arts Empty Bowls and Student Art Show will begin at 12:15 in the Art Gallery.

The Student Art Show will feature the work of Southwest students in a variety of mediums.

The Empty Bowls Lunch ($20) features one-of-a-kind ceramic bowls crafted by students from Lebanon High School, Richlands High School, and Southwest Virginia Community College. The soup is a culinary creation by the students of the Southwest Virginia Community College Culinary Program.

The Empty Bowls Lunch is in honor of Doug Branton for his many years of enthusiastic support of arts programs at Southwest and in our service area. Thank you, Doug!
