What better way to bring the community together than with FOOD?!

Join our culinary ambassador and the Cooking Channel’s, Baron Ambrosia, as he hosts the FIRST Annual Hunts Point Slam Bake cooking competition featuring the “bounty, talent, and tastes of Hunts Point.”

The event begins at 5pm with the presentation of the dishes to the judges, then at 5:30pm the public tasting begins (my stomach is growling). At 6:30PM the judges will announce the winners.

Immediately following the festivities, there will be a public meeting to review draft ideas by Rebuild by Design to protect Hunts Point from the next Superstorm. You may recall there was a meeting back in January to gather community input for the project.

The Slam Bake and Rebuild by Design public meeting is Wednesday, March 19th  from 5:00 PM – 8:30 PM in the 3rd Floor event space at the American Banknote building at 1231 Lafayette Avenue.
