At this very popular annual event, local restaurants provide a filling lunch for ticket holders while musicians perform throughout the event. Silent auctions and mystery boxes will be back again! One-of-a-kind ceramic bowls are included with each ticket. They stand as a reminder for the hunger faced by many throughout the year in the Rio Grande Valley.
