St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in East Hampton will hold its annual summer fair on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Offering something for all ages, it will include a magic show and circus acts, face painting, art workshops, pony rides, a petting zoo, a water slide, carnival games, obstacle courses, live music, and, for fashionistas, a designer vintage clothing and accessories sale.

Kids will be entertained by Keith Leaf the Fire Juggler, Wendy the Pipe Cleaner Design Lady, and the band the Popsicles. On the food front, fair- goers can expect hamburgers and hot dogs, clams on the half shell and clam chowder, waffles, cotton candy, fresh cookies and cakes, and ice cream from Mister Softee.

The vintage clothing sale will offer gently worn designer selections, clean, pressed, and at “bargain prices,” donat- ed by “some of the most fashionable women in the Hamptons,” according to the organizers. A portion of the day’s proceeds will be donated to local chari- ties including Maureen’s Haven, which aids the homeless, the Retreat, which helps victims of domestic violence, and soup dinners.

The fair takes place on the church grounds on James Lane. There is no

charge to attend, and bracelets, which will be sold for $4, will allow children to access all the games and activities, with some requiring more than one bracelet.

The Sweet Smell of Nostalgia at Sagaponack General

Stepping into the new Sagaponack General Store, which reopened yesterday after being closed since 2020, is a sweet experience, and not just because there’s a soft-serve ice cream station on the left and what promises to be the biggest penny candy selection on the South Fork on your right, but because it’s like seeing an old friend who, after some struggle, made it big. Really, really big.
