Music for Food is a musician-led initiative to address hunger and food insecurity on a local level, transforming the nourishment of music into tangible food for those in need. Musicians volunteer their time and talent; 100% of what we raise at our concerts goes to support a nearby pantry. As musicians we are building stronger communities and tackling the global problem of hunger, in our neighborhoods, and one note at a time.
Smorgasburg is the largest weekly open-air food market in America, attracting 20,000-30,000 people to Brooklyn each weekend to eat from 100 local vendors—Saturdays on the Williamsburg waterfront and Sundays in beautiful Prospect Park. It launched May 21, 2011, as a spinoff of Brooklyn Flea (founded in 2008), and has since launched dozens of small businesses and attracted millions of visitors.
