On the Rocks – Fundraiser

Join us on Friday, September 15, 2023, 6:00 p.m. at The Paterson Museum for a memorable evening benefitting St. Paul’s Community Development Corporation’s Breaking the Cycle Initiative.

Maria C. Palmer wears many hats. In addition to her fundraising work on behalf of St. Paul’s Community Development Corporation (SPCDC), Maria recently published her debut narrative nonfiction book On the Rocks: The Primadonna Story, which is currently the #1 release on Amazon in the Culinary Memoir category and a top 5 new release in the True Crime category.

On the Rocks: The Primadonna Story chronicles the rise of Maria’s father Joseph Costanzo, Jr., a highly acclaimed restaurateur from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, through his sharp fall ending with time spent in federal prison.

Join us for an engaging and enlightening event with refreshments ‘On the Rocks’ style, a live reading, Q & A session, and a personalized book signed by the author herself. Each ticket purchased includes a hardcover copy of On the Rocks: The Primadonna Story.
