empty bowls 2026

Thank you for showing up so wholeheartedly in support of our mission. It was such a joy to meet so many of you at Empty Bowls Paso Robles and reconnect with longtime supporters — what a beautiful evening it was.

We couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you — our volunteers, artists, our pianist, restaurant and winery partners, sponsors, donors, guests, and the entire ECHO team. Because of you, this event was such a meaningful success.

And a special thank you to one of the most powerful moments of the night — Marcella Ramirez, who shared her story with such courage, honesty, and heart. Your story is truly inspiring, and we were honored to have you share it with our community.

We are overflowing with gratitude. We can’t wait to do it all again with you for Empty Bowls 2027.
