Sunday, October 6th
Fornino Pier 6 (Brooklyn Bridge Park)
Hundreds of New Yorkers joined us at Fornino on Pier 6 in Brooklyn Bridge Park in October for a pizza party of epic proportions! The event featured 35 of NYC’s top pizza makers baking off specialty pizzas available only at this event. Together we were able to raise $15.7k towards our hunger relief initiatives!
Event guests had access to three 90 minutes sessions of:
THIS YEAR WE OFFERED PLANT-BASED OPTIONS!
During Session II of the event, ALL pizza makers made plant-based pies upon request!
Pies made with GF dough will also available upon request with select pizzaioli throughout the event. However, since they will be made in the same ovens as the other pizza, they may not be suitable for those with Celiac or strong gluten sensitivities. More details once the schedule is announced!
This event features fresh pizza made on-site in Fiero Forni and Ooni ovens. Pizza makers work together — like a big culinary jam session. We rotate pizza makers throughout the event, serving a continuous variety of options for attendees.
The proceeds from this event will benefit our hunger-relief projects, most notably our ongoing Pie it Forward project.
