I love this one: MIKE WEISS GALLERY TO CELEBRATE NATIONAL ICE CREAM DAY WITH FREE ICE CREAM TRUCK SATURDAY, JULY 20th 12-6pm





MIKE WEISS GALLERY TO CELEBRATE NATIONAL ICE CREAM DAY WITH FREE ICE CREAM TRUCKSATURDAY, JULY 20th 12-6pm


In 1984, President Ronald Reagan designated July as National Ice Cream Month and the third Saturday of the month as National Ice Cream Day.  He recognized ice cream as a fun and nutritious food that is enjoyed by a full 90 percent of the national population.  In the proclamation, President Reagan called for all people of the United States to observe these events with "appropriate ceremonies and activities."  Mike Weiss Gallery (MWG) encourages art collectors and consumers to celebrate July 20th as National Ice Cream Day.

In Honor of this very special day, Mike Weiss is securing "Benny's Ice Cream - The Ice Cream Man With A Truck" for the entire day, in order to give away free ice cream to art collectors and art lovers in front of his gallery at 520 W. 24 Street.  Please be aware that there are a few restrictions to the offer, which will be posted on the ice cream truck.

The U.S. ice cream industry generated total revenues of $10 Billion in 2010, with take-home ice cream sales representing the largest section of the market, generating revenues of $6.8 billion or 67.7 percent of the market's overall value.  (Source: MarketLine, an Informa business) About 9 percent of all the milk produced by U.S. dairy farmers is used to produce ice cream, contributing significantly to the economic well-being of the nation's industry.

Mike Weiss Gallery was founded in 2003 as being an innovative showcase for the ongoing presentation and promotion of strong, visceral, and visionary contemporary art worldwide.  The gallery is dedicated to exhibiting the work of ambitious contemporary artists at all levels of their careers and development.

Fine Art Magazine | Parrish Mid Summer Party: Dancing Fun was had by all
Saturday, July 13th 2013, Fine Art Magazine joined the 2013 Midsummer Party—the first to be held at the new Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill. We saw some of the most noted faces in the art world; enjoyed a spectacular, not-to-be-missed Hamptons event in a truly remarkable setting. The dinner party broke, as the gala ended and the after dancing began. Festive attire adorned by all, the height of summer fashion was seen coming and going. This is as promised an event not to be missed. Please enjoy our pics as much as we enjoyed seeing the festivities.

THE HAMPTONS INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL FIFTH ANNUAL SummerDocs SERIES CONTINUES WITH ELAINE STRITCH: SHOOT ME ON AUGUST 12th & THE SHORT GAME ON AUGUST 30th



THE HAMPTONS INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL

FIFTH ANNUAL SummerDocs SERIES CONTINUES WITH

ELAINE STRITCH: SHOOT ME ON AUGUST 12th & THE SHORT GAME ON AUGUST 30th


The Hamptons International Film Festival (HIFF) 5th Annual SummerDocs series, which presents East End audiences the best in documentary filmmaking, continues with the final two films in this year’s program.


On August 12th, ELAINE STRITCH: SHOOT ME, and on August 30th, HIFF rounds out the SummerDocs series with THE SHORT GAME.


“From 7 year old golf prodigies, to an 87 year old Broadway legend, the final 2 films in this year’s SummerDocs series are touching, fun, and provide a real look at the challenge of consistency in doing what one loves at the highest level, day in and day out at any age,” states  HIFF Artistic Director David Nugent.

ELAINE STRITCH: SHOOT ME is the story of Broadway legend Elaine Stritch, 87, who takes the spotlight once again in acclaimed documentary producer Chiemi Karasawa’s directorial debut.  Bold and poignant, the film follows the uncompromising Tony and Emmy-award winner dominating the stage, tormenting Alec Baldwin on “30 Rock,” sharing her personal takes on her struggles, and reflecting on her life.  Featuring friends Nathan Lane, George C. Wolfe, Hal Prince, Cherry Jones, Tina Fey, James Gandolfini and John Turturro, ELAINE STRITCH: SHOOT ME reaches beyond the icon’s brassy exterior to reveal a multi-dimensional portrait of a complex woman and artist. IFC Films will release the movie in early 2014


THE SHORT GAME is a film about the little guys: eight talented boys and girls, ages seven and eight, who descend on one of golf’s meccas, Pinehurst, NC, to compete in the World Championship of Junior Golf. 1500 young golfers from 54 countries aspire to be the sport’s next phenom, but as Josh Greenbaum, with his feature film debut, turns his lens these eight – which includes Anna Kournikova’s younger brother Allan and Amari “Tigress” Avery who shares a birthday, hometown, and ethnic background as one Tiger Woods – their stories intertwine to form a fascinating and often funny portrait of a group of very young athletes and their families as they navigate the narrowly-focused, peculiar, and highly competitive subculture of junior golf.


"David has a good eye for documentaries that lead to good discussion programs after." said Hamptons International Film Festival Advisor Board Member Alec Baldwin.  "I think SummerDocs has been a great success."


“We have been thrilled by the enthusiastic response to our SummerDocs series and are happy to be able to continue to bring new and exciting documentaries to the Hamptons every summer.” said Hamptons International Film Festival Executive Director Anne Chaisson.

Tickets for the screenings are available for purchase at www.guildhall.org or at the Guild Hall Box Office.

The 21st Annual Hamptons International Film Festival will be held over Columbus Day Weekend, October 10th – 14th 2013.

A limited number of Founders Passes are currently on sale until Labor Day.
