1) For the second year in a row, Ralph Lauren's East Hampton stores are selling a collection of shirts, sweatshirts, tote bags and baseball caps to benefit the East Hampton Historical Society. Designed with inspiration from the Society's archives, much of the collection features the image of a whale in a 'nod to the whaling industry' that was once prevalent in town. T-shirts for sale also benefit the restoration of Mulford Farm on James Lane, a project that has been funded by Lauren's donations and benefitted from his employees acting as volunteers. [EH Star]

New, used and antique items include furniture, designer and vintage clothes and home accessories. Saturday, 9am-2pm. 75 Main Street. Cash only. [CurbedWire Inbox]
