The Church, an arts center on Madison Street in Sag Harbor, will have a cocktail reception, chaired by Elisa Rojas Ross, an Emmy Award-winning journalist, to benefit Organizacion Latino Americana of Eastern Long Island on Thursday night from 5 to 7.

A $300 ticket provides Mexican tapas from Coche Comedor, tequila, and music from Pussy Tales, with Mila Tina on percussion, Inana Bold singing, and Camila Celin on guitar.

A silent auction with items selected by Yubal Marquez Fleites, an art curator, will help boost the mission of OLA to build a "safer, healthier, and more equitable East End for Latinos and all community members." The website for tickets is olasabor2023.eventbrite.com.

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.
