Sag Harbor eateries including the Corner Bar, Il Cappuccino, Tutto il Giorno, and Sag Pizza will provide the food for a garden party Saturday to benefit the Sag Harbor Whaling and Historical Museum.

Dubbed the Calm Before the Storm, because we know the storm of full-blown summer is just around the corner, the event will also feature live jazz, an auction of "Hamptons experiences" and good, and libations from Channing Daughters winery in Bridgehampton and Kidd Squid Brewing in Sag Harbor. It will run from 5 to 7 p.m. on the museum's lawn.

Tickets cost $50, or $40 for museum members, and can be purchased through the website.

Time to Strip, Dip, Freeze

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.

Support Where It’s Most Needed

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.
