Art, Architecture, and Irish Food in Bridgehampton

Thu, 03/06/2025 - 13:45

There's a lot going on at the Bridgehampton Museum’s Nathaniel Rogers House this week. 

First up is an opening reception for an exhibition of paintings by Eric Dever and sculpture by Joel Perlman on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The show will be on view through April 20. There is a suggested donation of $20 for the reception. 

Then on Wednesday, A.I.A. Peconic will co-host a seminar on design approaches to historical renovation projects on at 5:30 p.m. Lipsky Construction will be the presenter. Doors will open at 5 for networking. The cost is $12, or $10 for A.I.A. Peconic members. Registration details can be found on the museum’s website. 

On Friday, March 14, Brian Collins, a chef with a historical bent, will serve up an authentic St. Patrick’s Day dinner including mussels with Irish cider, colcannon, roast chicken with Cumberland sauce, roast lamb, and chocolate Guinness bread pudding. Mr. Collins will talk about “traditional Irish cooking and how it changed when the Irish came to America,” according to the museum. There is space for just 25 people at the dinner, which will be held at the Rogers House from 6 to 7:30 p.m. The cost is $20 and reservations are a must.

Montauk Chemists Opens, Minus Pharmacy

Frank Calvo, the longtime pharmacist at White’s Drug and Department Store, which closed on Oct. 31, has opened Montauk Chemists on Main Street and is selling over-the-counter merchandise including vitamins and self-care products. One week after an inspection of the store’s pharmacy, however, he is still awaiting New York State approval to operate it.

Slow Start at New Gosman’s

In some ways, Gosman’s Dock, one of Montauk’s few remaining family-owned and operated businesses until its October 2024 sale, closely resembles the complex of restaurants and shops long revered by locals and visitors alike. In other ways, though, it is markedly different under its new ownership.
