Memorial Day observances in East Hampton and Sag Harbor Villages on Monday were both solumn and celebratory, as people lined the streets in both villages to salute veterans and remember the fallen. 

The musical voyage of Tomas Majcherski, an East Hampton native and multi-instrumentalist, has taken him to Ghana, Cleveland, New Orleans, Uruguay, and Paraguay, all the while absorbing the history of jazz in all its manifestations.

The Hampton Theatre Company’s production of John Patrick Shanley’s comedy “The Portuguese Kid” turns a predictable script into an enjoyable night of theater thanks to top-flight performances and a sure directorial hand.

For the Star's annual graduation section, set to be published on June 15, families, friends, and community members are invited to celebrate the Class of 2023 with heartfelt messages and photos.

The special publication — always a keepsake — features student artwork and class photos representing East Hampton High School, Pierson (Sag Harbor) High School, Bridgehampton High School, and the Ross School.
