History is meant to be explored! Today, we had the pleasure of welcoming Susan to the Eastville Community Historical Society as she continues her journey through Suffolk County’s 250th Anniversary Passport Book.

Susan has now collected an incredible 107 out of 112 stamps! We are honored that Eastville could be part of her journey and truly admire her dedication to discovering, celebrating, and preserving our local history. Thank you for stopping by, Susan. Only 5 more to go! 🏛️👏🏾

Last night, we celebrated the life and legacy of Amaza Lee Meredith at the opening for Dear Mazie at The Church here in Sag Harbor. Curated by ICA @ VCU, the exhibition featured local artists and archival works by and featuring Amaza herself. We were glad to support the community and show up for two of Eastville's leaders, Michael Butler and Donnamarie Barnes.

Artists Michael A. Butler and Donnamarie Barnes will be featured alongside other artists you don't want to miss this!
