Two Hamptons-Based Organizations Launch “5 For Food” Campaign To Keep Local Food Pantries Stocked

As uncertainly about what the next couple of weeks and even months will bring grows, The Clamshell Foundation and East End Cares (EEC) have turned their attention to raising vital funding for emergency food supplies for local food pantries.

“COVID-19 has left many in our community without jobs or alternate means of support,” Christopher Barry, an EEC member who is spearheading a community-wide initiative with Kori Peters, President of the Clamshell Foundation, explained.

That is bound to result in an overwhelming demand on the food pantries. To help lessen the strain, EEC and The Clamshell Foundation are launching an emergency “5 for Food” campaign. “We hope, by asking for just a $5 donation, everyone will be able to join in,” Barry, a resident of East Hampton and Manhattan and a finance executive for A + E Networks, noted. “Every dollar will go directly to provide emergency food to the East Hampton Food Pantry, Springs Food Pantry, Sag Harbor Food Pantry, and Montauk Food Pantry.”

“The compassion, love, and outpouring of support the Food Pantry has received from the community has meant so much to the Food Pantry. We live in a special community, one that when there’s a need everyone comes out to help,” Vicki Littman, East Hampton Food Pantry Chairperson, shared. “We are forever grateful to East End Cares and The Clamshell Foundations for their ‘5 For Food Campaign’ for helping to keep the food pantries shelves stocked.”

Both East End Cares and The Clamshell Foundation’s mission are focused on championing the local community.

“East End Cares is gratified to be collaborating with the Clamshell Foundation and such an incredible team of volunteers who came together from various disciplines to support the 5 for Food campaign,” Barry reflected. “With the community behind us, I believe that we can fill these food pantries and the bellies and hearts of our neighbors in need.”

The Clamshell Foundation was established in 1992 to support the East End’s people, initiatives, and organizations. 100 percent of all proceeds the Foundation raises is reinvested back into the community. EEC, an online platform that unites those who want to give back with opportunities to provide aid, was founded in response to Superstorm Sandy.

“We are so thankful for East End Cares. It is an honor to be working with them as we strive to make a difference in the community during this difficult time,” William Kalbacher, CEO of The Clamshell Foundation, said. “Thank you to everyone who is helping others stay safe and healthy.”

Proceeds from the campaign will be utilized to procure vital emergency food supplies – as it is expected that more and more community members will need to rely upon the food pantries to feed their families. The Montauk Food Pantry already sees easily 100 clients or more each week, the Springs Community Food Pantry serves approximately 100 families, and the East Hampton Food Pantry serves 7,000 households annually.

“In so many ways we are already a paycheck to paycheck community — and now, too many of our neighbors face unemployment without sick pay or benefits of any kind. Food is the most basic of needs for every individual and every family. Food is love. And we want to share as much of both as we can,” Melissa Berman, one of the founders of EEC, added.

Donations, which are tax deductible, can be made online at clamshellfoundation.org.

In addition to the “5 for Food” campaign, East End Cares is also mobilizing volunteers to assist those in need. If you want to sign up to volunteer, or need assistance, email [email protected].

Hamptons-Based Library Joins The Effort To Make Protective Gear For Healthcare Workers

Hamptons-Based Library Joins The Effort To Make Protective Gear For Healthcare Workers

  • The place is the old Astro’s, and it looks pretty much the same except all the seating is now by the windows, and there are no tables. You can go in for slices, and overall, it’s a pretty typical pizza joint with a more retro vibe. But what’s great about this pizza is that it is thin and has a crispness to it that you don’t get anywhere else in the Hamptons. This means that even if you devour half a pie, you don’t walk away feeling bloated and like death is imminent, but you just feel really full from good pizza.

Everything is fresh, and the overall vibe is trendy. You have to go. I gave it an 8.4. #pizza  #pizzatime  #pizzalover  #hamptons  #finipizza
  • Special Screening of Love…Reconsidered, A Hamptons-Based Romantic Comedy

The Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center will be hosting a premiere of the film Love…Reconsidered on Saturday, September 30th at 7:00 p.m. in the Mollie Parnis Auditorium. This is the charming romantic comedy starring Sophie von Haselberg, Judy Gold, Marisa Ryan, Elaine Bromka, Luke Gulbranson, and Colton Haynes, set between New York City and Southampton.

Love…Reconsidered is based on Arielle Haller-Silverstone’s true love/life story, and she wrote the screenplay after losing her job during the pandemic where she then moved to the Hamptons. Haller-Silverstone is the co-owner of Le Closet, a curated consignment store, with locations in Southampton and New York City, and she can’t wait to premiere this film at WHBPAC and connect with viewers.

The screening will also include a panel discussion with the filmmakers moderated by Kate Schumacher and Carinn Jade of the well-known podcast Pop Fiction Women. They will dive into the film’s characters and the complicated lives they lead, along with the filmmaking process that brought this movie to life on the screen. Arielle Haller-Silverstone spoke more about her inspiration for the screenplay, her background, and what she is most looking forward to for the screening.

Congratulations on your film Love…Reconsidered. Can you talk about the story behind this film and where your inspiration came from to write the screenplay? 

Arielle Haller-Silverstone: I lost my job during COVID and started Le Closet from my studio apartment in Hell’s Kitchen. On a total whim, my dad knew a broker that knew a broker in Southampton, and I decided to give it a shot. I schlepped all of the clothes from NYC and opened on Windmill Lane (where the store still is today!). I knew there was a script within this story and had to make a movie. @whbpac

  • Sara Hartman Talks Musical Beginnings, Berlin, and New Album ‘Start Somewhere Dark’

With the excitement surrounding the return of the Sag Harbor Music Festival this year, one artist stood out in the lineup: Sara Hartman. She’s not your typical local artist. She is a SHMF veteran, performing at the very first one when she was just 15 years old. She grew up in Sag Harbor and attended Pierson High School. She took lessons at the famous Harbor Music Studio in Sag Harbor, and in 2015, she signed a record deal with a major label, moved to Germany, and toured the world opening for acts like Ellie Goulding, Clueso, Kelvin Jones, and many more. Her song “Monster Lead Me Home” off her Satellite EP has over 34 million Spotify streams. The US premiere of her new album “Start Somewhere Dark” will take place at Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor on Saturday, September 30th. It seems things are coming full circle for Sara.

She spoke to Hamptons.com about her musical beginnings, Berlin, and new album ‘Start Somewhere Dark.’

Take us back to the beginning of your musical journey. How did it all start?

I grew up in Sag Harbor and took lessons with Paul Chapin at Harbor Music. It was a little lesson space near Sag Town Coffee way back in the day. I got a drum set for Christmas and really fell in love with it. I’m sure my neighbors were not as in love with the instrument as I was haha. I was really grateful to be working with Chapin as a teacher. He taught me a bit of piano, bass, guitar, and ukelele as well. That led to me writing songs in my bedroom as a way of dealing with a bit of a chaotic home life. It was therapy for me to be able to express myself through songs. I was adopted by the East End music scene after playing a show at Crossroads Music in Amagansett and soaked up all that I could learn. I was really supported by my family and my teachers at Pierson. Without all this, I wouldn’t be where I am today. @sarahartmanmusic

  • Behind the Bar: Dopo Argento in Southampton

Okay, let’s set the scene: we’re walking down Main Street, Southampton, black mini shoulder bags hanging between us. We’ve just finished dinner a few doors down, arms linked and chatting about that mini Dachshund we saw enjoying an evening stroll with its owner. What’s the next stop? You ask. A little night cap? I suggest. Could it be a warm July night, a moody October weekend– doesn’t matter because you know this bar is just as delicious in the summer months as it is on a biting winter night. @dopoargentosouthampton
