Empty Bowls New Forest

It is with great sadness that in light of the recent Government COVID 19 directive that we have little choice but to cancel Empty Bowls soup week. Whilst many of the restaurants are happy to remain open, there will be little point in running the event if we don’t have enough punters to participate.

We have an idea to reschedule in the summer month, when hopefully mingling will be back on the agenda. We will be following the progress of the current crisis and once we have an idea of change ahead, we can put a date in the diary and see how that will work for everyone.

In the meantime, I would like to thank you all for everything you have done so far. It won’t be wasted and we will rise out of this with a beautiful event when the timing is right.

Very little else to say about it other than thank you all and stay safe.

Hampshire

The Hampshire Art Scene is shaped by a rich blend of coastal beauty, historic towns, and a thriving contemporary creative culture. From the cultural energy of Southampton and Portsmouth to the galleries, studios, and maker spaces scattered across Winchester, Lymington, the New Forest, and rural villages, the county offers a diverse and inspiring landscape for artistic expression. Its creators draw from maritime heritage, rolling countryside, and vibrant communities, producing work that feels both deeply rooted in place and open to fresh, modern ideas.
