An all-day, hands-on tomato sauce jarring event celebrating Italian heritage, family, friendship, and community on Sunday August 16th.

Rockaway's annual "Sagra del Pomodoro" presented by Edgemere Farm Works, Chef Pasquale Martinelli, and brothers. For generations, Italian families have gathered every summer to prepare homemade tomato sauce for the year ahead. These special days were never just about preserving tomatoes—they were about preserving traditions. Families, friends, and neighbors worked side by side, sharing stories, laughter, meals, and knowledge passed down from one generation to the next.

On Sunday, August 16, from 9am-3pm at Edgemere Farm, we will honor this tradition and our community in an all-day, hands-on event led by Chef Pasquale Martinelli, founder of Alloro New York Private Dining, where we process this season’s tomatoes into delicious & nutritious sauce, and jar it for the coming year.

Participants may sign up for two shifts, 9am-12pm (noon) and 12pm (noon)-3pm. Tasks will include washing and cutting tomatoes, processing cooked tomatoes through a tomato crusher or food mill, filling, sealing, canning, and wiping jars. Each participant will receive one 16oz jar of tomato sauce as a “thank you”.

Important: This is an all-ages event. However, due to the handling of very hot liquids, children must be supervised by adults at all times. Please wear closed-toe shoes.

Made possible with the support of NYC Parks, GreenThumb, Partnerships for Parks, NYC Green Fund, City Parks Foundation, Flushing Town Hall, and New York Foundation for the Arts.

Families will enjoy a guided garden tour, playful learning activities including making their own “insect hotels” using upcycled and foraged materials, and a chance to take home a native plant to support pollinators at home.

An afternoon of art, music, and performance by Domenica, Kashia Kancey, Sriram Raman & Siddharth Ashokkumar, and Saara Untracht-Oakner.

In its fourth year, Domingo World is an annual art, music, and performance series at Edgemere Farm in Far Rockaway, Queens. Curated by artists and community organizers m i c c a and Giovanni Fernandez-Kincade, and presented by the established arts and education nonprofit Edgemere Farm Works, it’s a platform for artists to develop and present work outside the confines of the industrial-art complex, in a historically underserved community of New York City.

Domingo World 2026 takes place Sunday, June 7th as a single-day event, an offering that brings together our most ambitious and expansive lineup to date.

This year’s edition invites audiences into an afternoon of sonic landscapes, durational movement, ephemeral sculpture, and musical improvisation shaped by the natural rhythms of the farm. Set in the open sunshine of a Queens beach farm, surrounded by growing organic produce, flowers, and chickens, this gathering is playful, atmospheric, and alive to whatever emerges.

We’re proud to present a true all-star lineup of artists working at the highest level of their respective practices — including Latin Grammy–winning flutist Domenica, dancer/choreographer Kashia Kancey, recently named one of Dance Magazine’s “25 to Watch” for 2026, musicians Sriram Raman & Siddharth Ashokkumar presenting a unique South Indian Classical Carnatic performance, and Rockaway local multimedia artist Saara Untracht-Oakner, creating a unique, site-specific ephemeral sculptural installation. This concentrated, one-day-only edition reflects our ongoing commitment to bringing thought-provoking, high-caliber art to Rockaway Beach while keeping it completely free and open to all. Domingo World exists to create an inclusive space where all ages, all communities, and all people are welcome to gather, connect, and experience bold, deeply considered artwork in direct conversation with the land, the community, and one another.

Craft & Create: Garden Stories & Handmade Flowers

In this two-part workshop with artists/educators Darrian Nosworthy and Areli Castillo, children will first paint garden story stones, using smooth rocks and colorful paints to create symbols of things they see on the farm (e.g., a tomato, a bee, a cloud). These stones will be used in a group storytelling circle to inspire imagination and sequencing. In the second activity, children will observe real flowers growing around the farm, then use wooden sticks and tissue paper to craft their own paper blossoms. They’ll arrange these into a bouquet to take home — a keepsake inspired by the day’s discoveries. This workshop is for kids aged 4-9.
