Cocktail hour starts at 6 p.m., followed by the dinner stations opening at 7 p.m.

“We love to throw parties, and the best ones happen when you’re throwing them for the right mission, like supporting the great, educational, and downright fun programming on WCNY,” said Matt Read, co-founder and host of Spatchcock Funk.
“We’re so excited to share the experience we create on the show with people in real life, giving us a chance to connect, trade ideas, and share recipes with anyone who wants to support WCNY and this show we’re trying to build,” said Alex DeRosa, co-founder and director of Spatchcock Funk.
Smoke-a-Palooza is presented by the William G. Pomeroy Foundation.
