Celebrating Feiffer
Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor will host a tribute to Jules Feiffer, the Pulitzer Prize-winning artist whose comic strip ran in The Village Voice for 42 years, on Sunday at noon. Feiffer, who lived and worked on the East End for many years, was also a playwright and screenwriter who won an Oscar for "Munro" (1961), his animated short.
Sunday's program will include reflections from five speakers, a seven-minute piece of music composed and performed by Andrew Lippa in honor of Feiffer, a musical tribute written for the event by Bruce Wolosoff, a multimedia presentation of photographs and video, and a lobby reception. In addition, Keyes Art in the village will host an exhibition of Feiffer's work. The event is free with a donation. Registration has been requested.
Pride Film Series
The Hamptons Pride Film Series, a showcase for L.G.B.T.Q.+ films, will return to Sag Harbor's Bay Street Theater on Sunday at 4 p.m. with "Carol" (2015), a Todd Haynes film starring Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara, both of whom received Oscar nominations.
Adapted from Patricia Highsmith's novel "The Price of Salt," the film follows two women from different backgrounds who find themselves in an unexpected love affair in 1950s New York.
In his New York Times review, A.O. Scott wrote, " 'Carol' is a study in human magnetism, in the physics and optics of eros. With sparse dialogue and restrained drama, the film is a symphony of angles and glances, of colors and shadows."
Tickets are $10 in advance, $15 at the door.
Rock and Classical
The Southampton Cultural Center will kick off the weekend Friday at 8 p.m. with a show by Foreign Journey, a tribute band for both Foreigner and Journey. Among the hits to be performed are "Don't Stop Believin'," "Cold as Ice," "Separate Ways," "Open Arms," "I Want to Know What Love is," and many others. Tickets are $35.
Robert Carlson and Mateusz Mikolajczak, two Pianofest in the Hamptons alumni, will perform a program of piano duets and solos on Saturday at 6 p.m. as part of the cultural center's Liliane Questel Recital Series. The program will feature works by Brahms, Dvorak, Chopin, and others. Tickets are $25.
An Eclectic Concert
Julie Bluestone, who plays the flute, saxophone, and clarinet, and Bill Smith, a pianist and keyboardist, will perform a concert at the Montauk Library on Sunday afternoon at 3. The program will range from the American Songbook to the Latin sounds of Tito Puente, and, according to the library, "everything in between."
Ms. Bluestone is a classically trained musician who performs at clubs, cabarets, weddings, and other venues in Manhattan and the Hamptons. Mr. Smith is a Grammy-nominated jazz pianist who co-founded the East End Latin group Mambo Loco. The two artists have collaborated for over 15 years.
Cocktail Benefit
The Bridgehampton Museum's fall fund-raiser, Cocktails at the Bridge, will take place on Oct. 4 from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Bridge Golf Club at the former Bridgehampton Race Circuit.
Hosted by Bob Rubin and the club, the event will honor Gerrit Vreeland, a past president of the museum, and John Millard, a former board member. Both were instrumental in securing and restoring the Nathaniel Rogers House, which anchors the southeast end of Main Street in Bridgehampton.
"We are thrilled to celebrate Gerrit and John for their extraordinary contributions," said Connor Flanagan, the museum's executive director. "Their leadership not only preserved one of the most important historic structures in Bridgehampton, but also strengthened the museum's role as a cultural hub for the East End."
Tickets are $125 and can be secured from the museum's website.
