Around Town: Hundreds enjoy 20th annual event at Arts Council

Annette Turik, left, and Rick Landis chat during Sunday’s Soup and a Bowl fund-raiser at the Community Council for the Arts Sunday afternoon. Turik, a CCA board member, has been the chairperson for the event for the past six years. Landis, whose shrimp corn chowder was one of the most popular choices on Sunday, was one of the two dozen cooks and chefs that prepared delicious soups and stews for the event. The Soup and a Bowl event, which started in 2000, is one of the biggest fund-raisers for the Arts Council every year and drew hundreds to the CCA on Sunday.
