The Church in Sag Harbor has lined up two programs this weekend in conjunction with its fall exhibition "Hand Made: Guitars According to G.E. Smith & the American Artists’ Hand Archive."

Carlos Barrios, an East Hampton guitar maker, will be on hand Friday at 6 p.m. The evening will begin with a screening of "A Guitar Maker's Path: The Search for Tone," a short documentary by John Jinks about Mr. Barrios that follows the creation of one of his guitars. A conversation with April Gornik will follow.

On Saturday at 5:30 p.m., G.E. Smith will speak about the 16 rare and classic guitars, many from his private collection, that are currently on view at The Church. The collection includes both acoustic and electric guitars, dating from 1810 to 1992.

Tickets to each program are $15.

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.
