The third annual “EarthHamptons,” an exhibition of work by artists and designers organized by Anahi DeCanio in celebration of Earth Day, will take place on Saturday and Sunday at Ashawagh Hall in Springs. A reception will be held Saturday from 5 to 9 p.m.

The show will include glass art by Mary Milne, photographs by Donna Renna, sculpture by Phyllis Hammond and Aurelio Torres, custom furniture by Angel Naula, and paintings by Ms. DeCanio.

 

Four at Grenning

“Fresh Virtuosity,” a show of work by Victor Butko, Kelly Carmody, Rachel Personett, and John Morfis, will open at the Grenning Gallery in Sag Harbor tomorrow and remain on view through May 14. A reception will be held on Saturday from 6 to 7:30 p.m.

Mr. Butko, a Russian impressionist painter, will show scenes painted during the past month around Sag Harbor.

Ms. Personett will show four floral paintings, while Mr. Morfis will be represented by trompe l’oeil paintings with a nautical theme.
