Guild Hall has announced the election of three new trustees to its board. Florence Fabricant, Alan Levin, and John Shea were elected on Feb. 25.

The Salon Series, a program of concerts by award-winning young classical musicians, will return to the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill tomorrow evening at 6 with Tim Fain, a violinist who has not only performed with orchestras in the U.S. and abroad but has also appeared on screen in “Black Swan” and as a violin double for Richard Gere and Chiwetel Ejiofor.

Mr. Fain, who plays an instrument made by Francesco Gobetti in Venice in 1717, will be accompanied on piano by Tanya Gabrielian, who was featured in the Salon Series last spring.

“All My Sons,” the 1947 play by Arthur Miller that launched the playwright’s career, will be presented at Guild Hall from June 9 through June 28 with Alec Baldwin and Laurie Metcalf in the leading roles. Stephen Hamilton, co-founder of Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor, will direct.

“This was a role that Alec was always looking for,” according to Barbara Jo Howard, Guild Hall’s director of marketing and communications. “Steve and Alec were batting that idea around for several years until the timing finally clicked into place.”

Comedy will take over the Bay Street stage on Saturday at 8 p.m. when Joseph Vecsey will host the All-Star Comedy Show, a recurring program that features up-and-coming comedians.

Saturday’s program will include Mike Brown, Nore Davis, and Yannis Pappas, in addition to Mr. Vecsey. Mr. Brown, a comedian and writer from Harlem, has performed at such comedy venues as Caroline’s Comedy Club, Stand Up NY, and Laugh Lounge.

Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor will present “A Night to Rock” with G.E. Smith, a guitar master and former “Saturday Night Live” bandleader, and David Broza, an acclaimed Israeli singer-songwriter, tomorrow at 8 p.m.

Mr. Smith, who lives in Amagansett, was the lead guitarist for Hall and Oates from 1979 to 1985 and for Bob Dylan’s touring band from 1988 to 1990. The roster of musicians who performed with the band on “Saturday Night Live” during his tenure includes Eddie Van Halen, Keith Richards, Rickie Lee Jones, Dave Edmunds, Johnny Winter, and many more.

Group Show at Ille Arts

Ille Arts in Amagansett will present “Ubiquity,” a group exhibition organized by Saskia Friedrich, from Saturday through April 27, with an opening reception set for Saturday from 5 to 7 p.m. Participating artists, who work in a variety of mediums, are Maeve D’Arcy, Jim Drain, Sabra Moon Elliot, Bill Saylor, and Ms. Friedrich.

According to Ms. Friedrich, “The show reflects the cultural, philosophical, and existential pluralism that exists today and invokes a simulacrum of the sublime within our consumerist society.”

Bay Street Theater has announced that Jason Alexander, who had been set to star in “Other People’s Money,” the second play of the 2015 Mainstage summer season, has had to withdraw from the role because he is taking over for Larry David in “Fish in the Dark” on Broadway.

The theater will announce Mr. Alexander’s replacement in the near future.

The John Drew Theater Lab will present a free staged reading of “Life Is Shorts,” an evening of short plays by Kat O’Neill, on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. The program will weave together 18 brief plays written and directed by Ms. O’Neill.

Talk at Parrish

The next installment of “Brain Food,” the Parrish Art Museum’s lunchtime series of illustrated talks, will feature Scott Howe, the Parrish’s deputy director, who will discuss the museum’s landscape design and its connection to the geology and history of Long Island and to the artists inspired by the natural beauty of the East End. Tickets cost $10, free for members, students, and children.

Free Admission

Slow food, sustainable agriculture, organic farming, and farm-to-table are terms that are so ubiquitous in the ever-expanding culinary world that hardly a restaurant opens today that doesn’t tout its use of locally sourced organic ingredients.

Several chefs on the East End were early proponents of those practices before they became commonplace, among them Colin Ambrose, who purchased Estia in Amagansett in 1991 and planted a two-acre organic garden close by, on the property of Lorne Michaels, the producer of “Saturday Night Live,” which provided produce for the restaurant.

Bay Street Theater will present “Get Down With Dawnette: A Classic Variety Show” on Saturday at 8 p.m. Dawnette Darden, who has performed for 10 years with her own band, New Dawn, and more recently with the HooDoo Loungers, will host the program, which will be modeled after such classic television fare as “Laugh-In” and “The Carol Burnett Show.”

Ms. Darden will sing with her two bands as well as with special guests — Inda Eaton, Mama Lee and Rose Lawler, Marvin Joshua, Julia Minerva, a comedian, and Danny Ximo.

The Hamptons Take 2 Documentary Film Festival, which will take place in December at Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor, will begin accepting submissions on Wednesday. Now in its eighth year, the festival celebrates the rich world of documentary films, with a particular emphasis on filmmakers from New York City and Long Island. Details about how to submit work can be found on ht2ff.com.

The John Drew Theater Lab will present a free staged reading of “In a Roundabout Way,” a play by Kim Sykes, an actress, writer, and artist from New York City, on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m.

The play is set at a time of political partisanship, financial chaos, and the struggles of women and African-Americans for a place in the American dream. Two women, Mary Todd Lincoln and Elizabeth Keckley, a former slave who became a civil activist and confidante of the president’s widow, try to rekindle their friendship amid the upheavals of late-19th-century America.

“Diller Scofidio + Renfro: Reimagining Lincoln Center and the High Line,” a 54-minute documentary produced by the Checkerboard Film Foundation, will be screened tomorrow at 6 p.m. at the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill.

Madoo Talks, the Sagaponack conservancy’s program of spring garden talks, will conclude Sunday at noon with a talk by Stephen Orr, author of “The New American Herbal,” published last fall by Clarkson Potter.

Mr. Orr will examine the long tradition of herbals, while adding layers of new information about the herbs used today in homes and gardens. His book covers the entire spectrum of herbaceous plants, from culinary to ornamental to aromatic and medicinal, presenting them in an alphabetical format.

Inspired at Ashawagh

“Under the Influence,” an exhibition of work by five artists who have been involved with the Pollock-Krasner House and Study Center, will be on view at Ashawagh Hall in Springs on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. and on Sunday from 11 to 4. A reception will be held Saturday from 5 to 7:30.

Crossroads Music, the Amagansett shop offering musical instrument sales and repairs as well as lessons, has once again expanded its event offerings with the introduction of the Tiny Room Show, an intimate concert in which an audience of 30 can see and hear a celebrated musician up close and extremely personal.

“Bach to Broadway,” a free concert by Barbara Fusco-Spera, a mezzo-soprano, and Walter Klauss, a pianist and conductor, will take place at the Old Whalers Church in Sag Harbor on Sunday at 4 p.m.

The program includes music by Bach, Barber, and selections from Bizet’s “Carmen,” as well as the music of Rodgers and Hammerstein, Lerner and Loewe, Sondheim, Bernstein, and others. Several familiar spirituals will conclude the concert.

The cleaning of “Alchemy,” one of Jackson Pollock’s earliest poured paintings, has revealed a new depth of color and contributed further evidence that his working methods included using a structural plan as a way to ground his poured compositions.

The intertwined musical history of Bob Dylan and the Band will be explored on Saturday when the Complete Unknowns, a group that performs the music of Mr. Dylan, and the HooDoo Loungers, a group known for its funky, New Orleans style, pay tribute to the legendary artists at Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor.

Bay Street Theater will hold equity principal local auditions on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. for its 2015 Mainstage productions, “The New Sincerity,” “Other People’s Money,” and “Grey Gardens: The Musical,” as well as for its fall production, “Of Mice and Men.”

Johannes Brahms will be celebrated by the Choral Society of the Hamptons on March 22 in an early evening concert at the East Hampton Presbyterian Church.

“Brahms in Love” should remind its audience why the composer’s funeral cortege attracted thousands of mourners on the streets of Vienna in 1897. The program will include an arrangement of his well-known “Lullaby,” as well as “Lovesong Waltzes” for chorus and four-hand piano, four songs for women’s chorus, horns, and harp, and four love songs for men’s chorus.

“The Sea Is All I Know,” a 29-minute film directed by Jordan Bayne and starring the Oscar winner Melissa Leo, has signed an international distribution deal with IndieFlix and is available for viewing on indieflix.com and Amazon Fire TV.

The Bridgehampton Museum’s Parlor Jazz series resumes Saturday at 7:30 p.m. with a performance by Ada Rovatti, a jazz saxophonist, composer, and arranger. The program, “Colori di Primavera,” will be hosted by Jane Hastay, a pianist, and Peter Martin Weiss, a bassist.

The flowers on the witch hazels opened within a few days of the temperature rising above freezing. One large clump of crocuses that had begun flowering in January before the blizzard resumed blooming as if six weeks of bitter cold and continuous snow had never happened. As the snow recedes the buds of the early crocuses and snowdrops are pushing out and need only a little sunshine to open.

Ceramics at Ille Arts

Ille Arts in Amagansett will open a solo exhibition of sculpture by Peter Jauquet with a reception on Saturday from 5 to 7 p.m. The show will run through April 6.

Mr. Jauquet, who lives in Greenport, has worked as a ceramic sculptor for eight years. His work is informed by Cubism and Surrealism and reflects his interest in tribal art, veneration objects, and religious and political figure types.

Taken by themselves, either act of “Clybourne Park” — the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning dramedy by Bruce Norris now at the Hampton Theatre Company in Quogue — would stand as a searing yet comedic paean to race relations. Taken together, the two acts masterfully blend into a social commentary on the advancement (or stagnation) of black and white amalgamation over half a century in a desirable Chicago suburb.

The Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill is launching a new exhibition series, Parrish Perspectives, which will focus on ways of thinking about art, artists, and the creative process. The first three shows, on view from Sunday through April 26, will feature work by Robert Dash, Jules Feiffer, and Joe Zucker.

“Robert Dash: Theme and Variations” will present 11 paintings and 8 works on paper that explore a single image. The paintings and drawings were inspired by his 1972 lithograph of Sagg Main Street, a short stroll from Madoo, his home in Sagaponack for nearly 50 years.

Made with wire, aluminum, string, acrylic, linen, brass, silk, wood, and even watch parts, Adrian Nivola's sculptures are elegant three-dimensional drawings evoking the draftsmanship of Saul Steinberg, the mobiles of Alexander Calder, and the paintings of Joan Miro.

The Bridgehampton Chamber Music Festival, which has been a zenith of classical music on the East End every summer since it started with a small series of concerts in 1984, has, over the years, found various innovative ways of programming. Now the festival will inaugurate a new venture, called BCMF Spring, with two Sunday concerts on March 22 and April 26.
