Gucci, the iconic international fashion brand that needs little else by way of introduction, is opening a new storefront Friday at 17 Newtown Lane in East Hampton Village.

Following a solemn year in which all official parades were canceled locally, there will be parades in both East Hampton and Sag Harbor Villages on Monday. 

Flynn Berry’s “Northern Spy” is a contemporary thriller about a single mother, her infant son, and her sister, and yet it illuminates much about the inner workings of the Irish Republican Army and British MI5.

Openings, specials, and farm stand and farmers market openings from all over welcome the season.
