The Church, an arts center on Madison Street in Sag Harbor, will have a cocktail reception, chaired by Elisa Rojas Ross, an Emmy Award-winning journalist, to benefit Organizacion Latino Americana of Eastern Long Island on Thursday night from 5 to 7.

A $300 ticket provides Mexican tapas from Coche Comedor, tequila, and music from Pussy Tales, with Mila Tina on percussion, Inana Bold singing, and Camila Celin on guitar.

A silent auction with items selected by Yubal Marquez Fleites, an art curator, will help boost the mission of OLA to build a "safer, healthier, and more equitable East End for Latinos and all community members." The website for tickets is olasabor2023.eventbrite.com.
