Join us for our annual Empty Bowls fundraising event in support of Anishnawbe Health Foundation. For over 25 years, the Gardiner Museum has hosted Empty Bowls to raise funds for Anishnawbe Health Foundation, an Indigenous foundation committed to enacting positive change through traditional and western healthcare practices. Its mission is to “improve, support, and promote the health, well-being, and healing of Aboriginal people in spirit, mind, emotion, and body within a multi-disciplinary health care model.” To date the Gardiner Museum has raised over $200,000 in support of Anishnawbe Health Foundation.
All proceeds from the event go directly to Anishnawbe Health Foundation.

About Empty Bowls
