All proceeds from the event will benefit the building of the Northside Town Hall Community and Cultural Center a joint project of two longtime North Brooklyn neighborhood non-profits, Neighbors Allied for Good Growth (NAG) and The People's Firehouse, Inc (PFI.) Located on the site of the former Engine Company 212 firehouse, the redesigned building will provide a permanent home for the two founding non-profits to continue to serve, organize, and advocate for the community, a flexible cultural exhibition and community meeting space on the ground floor and serve as a place for all to celebrate and build community... together.
The money raised from the event will go to the Town Hall's capital fund, which needs to reach $1 million by next year to begin the renovations to convert the building into this much-needed resource.
Taste Williamsburg Greenpoint, bringing community to the table.
