The Hamptons’ Oldest Fair Spends Another Summer in East Hampton

The Hamptons’ longest running fair, presented by St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in East Hampton, has been providing East End family fun for more than 100 years.

This year’s fair on Saturday, July 7, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., will feature entertainment such as a water slide, pony rides, face painting, a bounce house, magic shows, arcade carnival games, prizes, arts and crafts and Big Apple Circus clown Dikki Ellis.

For shoppers, there will be a vintage clothing booth featuring bespoke suits, haute couture dresses and ready to wear clothing.

There will also be a silent auction that will offer enticing items such as rounds at the best Hamptons golf courses. And, when attendees get hungry, there will be a wide selection of food choices such as clams on the half shell, freshly baked cookies, cakes and pies.

“Not only is the St. Luke’s Fair the longest running fair in the Hamptons, but it also raises money for important local charities that serve the community. And it’s great fun!” said Jeffrey Sussman.

Through the church’s outreach program, a portion of the funds will be donated to charities such as Maureen’s Haven, Community Soup Dinners, and the Retreat.

Admission to the Family Fair at St. Luke’s is free and the event is open to the public. Tickets for the carnival games are $2 per game.

St. Luke’s Church is located at 18 James Lane in East Hampton. For more information, visit www.stlukeseasthampton.org or call 631.329.0990.
