A Celebration of the life of Sam Williams, aka Smerdyakov Karamazov, will be held at Hale's Palladium on Sunday January 29th, 2017, between 2:00pm and 9:00pm.

Because Sam was beloved to so many, this is a ticketed event to ensure that there will be space for family and close friends. Admission for this event is free but by invitation with a code from family, friends, and colleagues.

If you feel like you should have a code, but have not received one via email, please contact a family member or your favorite member of FKB, Chautauqua, Moisture Fest, or KC Metro, or email to Sam at MoistureFestival dor org with your name and your connection to Sam, and a code will be sent to you. Thank you for your understanding!

This will be a casual drop-in/drop-out event, so come anytime during the event and stay as long as you wish. The main Memorial Program will begin at 5pm. Beverages and snacks (brats, chips, etc) may be purchased from concessions.  Unfortunately we cannot accept pot-luck items, so please plan to dine ahead of time if you would like a meal.

If we have not reached capacity closer to the event, remaining tickets will become available to all on a first-come-first-served basis.
