Well Is There?
The Church
As I sit here in my New York City apartment writing this newsletter, I can’t help but channel my inner Carrie Bradshaw. Granted this isn’t a sex column, but the Hamptons can definitely keep us on our toes just like Carrie and Big’s relationship. Fun fact: Candace Bushnell (author of SEX AND THE CITY and the OG Carrie Bradshaw) has moved out of the city and settled down in none other than Sag Harbor.
This leads me to a can’t-miss event as The Church presents Candace Bushnell in Is There Still Sex In The City? In her one-woman show, Candance divulges her life philosophy based on stories of fashion, literature, sex, and New York City while pouring cosmos in Manolos. Did I mention that May 7th is National Cosmopolitan Day? Looks like the stars are aligning.
The Church will transform into a dinner theater-style experience to host this amazing production. The event will take place June 10th from 7 - 10 PM and I am telling you about this now because floor seats are already sold out, however, they have available mezzanine seating and you can be placed on a waitlist for the main floor. During this event, food will be catered by Annie Washburn/ East Hampton Kitchen and the drinks are courtesy of Kidd Squid Brewery and Wolffer Vineyards. All of the proceeds from the night will benefit The Church and its mission to foster art, creativity, and community. So, are you going to buy tickets? WWCBD. (What Would Carrie Bradshaw Do?)

Recreation
Rosé and Rally. My New Favorite Pastime.
Tennis Innovators
Have you heard of the Tennis Innovators? Well if you haven’t, the Tennis Innovators have a clear mission of delivering their passion and commitment to the sport of tennis through a multitude of high-level programs for people of all ages. The programs they offer include High-Intensity Pickleball, Private Tennis/Pickleball Lessons, and weekend tournaments and events. However, my personal favorite is their Rosé x Rally experience where you have a 45-minute lesson, a 45-minute rally, and of course, you can sip wine before, during, and after. Tennis and Rosé while overlooking Montauk Beach? If that doesn’t scream the Hamptons, I don’t know what will.

Riding in Style
James Katsipis Studio
The Hamptons is a world-renowned destination for luxury, relaxation, and fashion. And when it comes to surfing, the Hamptons Surf Company stands out as a beacon of lifestyle and art. Founded in 2015, Hamptons Surf Company is both a full-fledged lifestyle brand as well as an artist collective. All of their products from t-shirts and bucket hats to surfboards and art reflect the unique style and culture of the Hamptons.
The Hamptons Surf Company is also known for its stylish and trendy designs. Their surfboards feature unique patterns and graphics that capture the essence of the Hamptons’ lifestyle. Recently, they released limited edition surfboards with Hamptons native photographer James Katsipis. This new collection was developed and designed with Hamptons Surf Company alongside Make And Ride Surf Exchange and James Katsipis. These designs are truly one of a kind as Katsipis’ photos are laminated directly onto each surfboard. And the coolest part? It’s a piece of art that can be put on display or used in the water at your favorite break.
Each board will be signed and numbered as a limited edition of 1 of 10. If you are interested in purchasing one of these surfboards, click HERE.
