“It’s one of our most successful events,” Ferguson said. “It really brings different people together to mix and mingle.”

At the event, guests sample 10 to 12 amazing soups from local restaurants and businesses on their chosen night. Penticton and Summerland Potters’ Guilds are both donating beautifully crafted bowls participants can take home.
