Reservations are now open for the Cormaria Retreat Center's afternoon high tea, which will take place on Thursday, Nov. 9, from 2 to 4 p.m. in Sag Harbor.
If soft classical music, a warm beverage, and fresh-baked items are your, well, cup of tea — prepared by George Hirsch, a chef and cookbook author — spots can be reserved by calling 631-725-4206 or emailing [email protected].
Seating is limited and advance reservations are required. The $25 fee supports the retreat center.
Polar plunges at Main Beach in East Hampton and Beach Lane in Wainscott on New Year’s Day accomplish many things: bracing and exhilarating starts to the year, the company of many hundreds of friends and fellow townspeople, and a chance to secure bragging rights that extend well into 2026. But most important, each serves as a critical fund-raiser for food pantries.
Soon after moving to Water Mill with her family in 2015, Marit Molin became aware of a largely unacknowledged population underpinning the complicated Hamptons economy. That led her to create Hamptons Community Outreach, which is dedicated to meeting basic critical needs to help break cycles of poverty.
This etching by Mary Nimmo Moran shows what was likely the view from her home across Town Pond, with the Gardiner Mill in the background, a favorite landscape for her.
