Celebrating Local Bounty

There’s nothing quite like summer in the Hamptons! And the vibrant landscape is just one piece of that particular magic.

Just as is in previous years, we are delighted to uplift and showcase the rich agricultural products of the Hamptons through our food with locally grown ingredients, wines from partner vineyards and floral arrangements from local growers.

Look Back

Last year, we raised $315,000 for critical and lifesaving LGBTQ+ resources and advocacy, enabling over 22,000 patients to access world-class healthcare. We partied with DJ Amber Martin and John Cameron Mitchell, danced to incredible tunes and tasted some of the best local wines together! Won’t you join us again this year?
