Shine a light on childhood hunger at tonight’s Central Texas Food Bank gallery show
Monday, May 20, 2024 by Elizabeth Pagano
Tonight, the Central Texas Food Bank is holding the first gallery night for its Feed Creativity Youth Art Competition. The event will highlight the nearly 100 pieces submitted in the competition by students, as well as unveiling the grand prize winner, whose art will be displayed on a 26-foot distribution truck. In addition, the evening will highlight the work of the food bank, which will continue to provide 6,000 meals and snacks to students this summer when they are out of school. The gallery night is free and open to the public at the Central Texas Food Bank at 6500 Metropolis Drive, with check-in starting at 5:30 p.m. and programming at 6 p.m.
