Piano Recital
The Salon Series at the Parrish Art Museum will stream a live performance in its theater by Nadejda Vlaeva, a prize-winning Bulgarian-born pianist, Friday at 6 p.m. Ms. Vlaeva, who has performed solo recitals and with orchestras throughout Europe and the United States, won first prize in the Liszt Competition in Lucca, Italy, and the Yamaha Award in Weimar, Germany, for the best interpretation of Brahms.

The concert will include an original work titled “Between Two Worlds,” as well as compositions by Alexander Scriabin, Franz Liszt, and the Bulgarian composer Pancho Vladigerov. Registration is on the museum’s website.

Plastic Pollution
In conjunction with its current exhibition, “Earth: Artists as Activists,” the Southampton Arts Center will present “The Story of Plastic,” a documentary by Deia Schlosberg that examines the issue of plastic pollution and how it affects the environment, Friday at 6:30 p.m.

Striking footage, original animations, and archival material combine to illuminate the disastrous impact of the manufacture and use of plastics and the global challenge facing animals, humans, and the planet. The screening and a panel discussion with Erica Cirino, Kristin Peterson, Kara Hahn, Beth Fiteni, and George Povall will take place on the center’s west lawn. Registration is on the center’s website.

The Sweet Smell of Nostalgia at Sagaponack General

Stepping into the new Sagaponack General Store, which reopened yesterday after being closed since 2020, is a sweet experience, and not just because there’s a soft-serve ice cream station on the left and what promises to be the biggest penny candy selection on the South Fork on your right, but because it’s like seeing an old friend who, after some struggle, made it big. Really, really big.
