For more than 100 years, St. Luke's Episcopal Church has had a tradition of hosting a summer fair on the church grounds. On Saturday it returns from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 18 James Lane in East Hampton Village.  

Similar to those from past years, this year's fair will feature activities for all age groups, including a magic show, circus acts like Keith Leaf the fire juggler, art workshops, carnival games, animal displays, obstacle courses, and water slides. Trucks selling ice cream and food will be on hand.

All attractions are free — a chance for friends and family, locals and visitors alike, to spend time together outdoors before the summer ends. Donations will be accepted. 

The church, which dates to the 19th century, hosts the fair to raise money for its operating expenses and for charitable causes in East Hampton.
