A Day of Wonder and Play at The Church

Thu, 05/01/2025 - 11:45

The Church in Sag Harbor has planned “a full day of wonder, fun, and playfulness” for families on Saturday, with activities to get the brain and body going and creative juices flowing. The Spring Jubilee runs from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Mad Science Long Island will get things started with a fire-and-ice show filled with experiments to “educate and thrill audiences” at 11:30. Tickets cost $15, or $10 for members. From 1 to 4, creativity passes, which cost $35 for members and $40 for everyone else, allow access to a bounce house, face painting, a creativity lab, and a slime workshop. Or people can choose their activity and pay an a la carte ticket price of $15 for each.

Children must be accompanied by an adult for the afternoon offerings, but chaperones do not need to buy tickets. Advance purchase through The Church’s website is suggested.

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.
