Hi Catherine,
You can search the internet for "Empty Bowls" and find lots of articles
and pottery organisations that do Empty Bowls each year. I show some
results further down the page.
However, you may be interested in Revenue Canada's "Regulations for
what's Tax Deductible and Other Legal Matters":

For the question of event liability insurance, here's something I think
is well worth reading, by Rebecca Gardyn writing for Philanthropy Com:
http://philanthropy.com/jobs/2004/08/19/20040819-50109.htm
Ontario Nature has a more succinct page on the same liability issues:
http://www.ontarionature.org/network/facts3.html
For a Glossary of Insurance Terms for Non-Profit Risk, visit the
Nonprofit Risk Management Center:

To find a broker who can find your group a satisfactory insurer,
possibly this information from Volunteer Canada will be helpful:
