Bookmark and Share

Durham chefs will be serving up soup March 5 to raise money for Urban Ministries.

The event called Empty Bowls '10 raises funds for the Durham non-profit, which provides hot meals and food pantry for those in need. 

Soup will be served 5:30-8 p.m. Friday, March 5 at the Durham Armory, 220 Foster St. Durham.

Tickets cost $30 each, which includes a one-of-a-kind keepsake bowl made by a local artist. Or you can purchase tickets for $15 to just eat soup without the keepsake bowl. Children ages 6 and under eat free. To order tickets, call 682-0538 or click HERE

A panel of judges and the public will each pick their own favorite soup among those served. The restaurants that will serve soup, include Blu Seafood & Bar, Papa Mojo's Roadhouse, Revolution and Nana's.

Can you double-check the date of the event?

March 5th is a Monday, not a Friday.

The Urban Ministries of Durham web site (a link to which your comment software will not allow me to post) says that this event is taking place on Thursday, March 8th.
