Kate Mueth and the Neo-Political Cowgirls will offer a night of "naughty one-acts" at the Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett on Saturday night. Called "Taboo," the event is a benefit for "EVE," an original theatrical production the group is bringing to New York City in the fall.

It will feature seven short humorous plays that are too risque or controversial to be considered family entertainment and not likely to be staged in more traditional venues. A 50-50 raffle and a song about a body part are amont the enticements.

The fun begins at 7 p.m.

Just like the buds on the trees and the first stirrings of crocuses and snowdrops this weekend, the winter hibernation of the South Fork art scene showed signs of abatement.

At the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill, three shows under the heading of "Perspectives," quick takes on artists who work or have worked on the East End, opened with receptions on Saturday and Sunday.

Halsey Mckay Gallery in East Hampton opened two shows this weekend, an artist-curated show in the Newtown Lane gallery and a single artist installation at the former residence and studio of Elaine de Kooning on Alewife Brook Road.

Chris Duncan’s “Year” is installed at the de Kooning house and marks a year of loss and challenge for the artist. He began his project in January of last year, flying from his native California to install black cotton fabric in the solarium and studio windows of the building in order to capture the image of the window into the fabric.

Julianne Moore, who played a woman in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease in “Still Alice,” won the best actress Oscar for the role on Sunday night.

Ms. Moore, who has a house in Montauk with her husband, Bart Freundlich, and their children Caleb and Liv, stars in the film with Alec Baldwin, whose own association with the South Fork and its various arts and non-profit institutions defines ubiquity.
