These are a must-attend events in the Hamptons this weekend and we promise celebrity sightings - like
Mariah Carey and
Nick Cannon - all over town.
1. Tonight
Art Southampton, presented by
Art Miami, debuts and runs through Monday. The inaugural event takes place right on the highway in Southampton at the Elks Lodge to getting there is a breeze. Organizers promise unique exhibits never before seen in the Hamptons and a sculpture near the VIP lounge that will leave you breathlessly inspired.
2.
Super Saturday 15 is the mother-of-all-yard sales and it takes over the fields at nova's Ark in Bridgehampton. VIP preview shopping starts at noon and the cut-throat shopping really heats up late in the day when prices are slashed. It's all in good fun hosted by
Kelly Ripa and
Donna Karan to benefit the
Ovarian Cancer Research Fund. Tickets are still available and we hear the very heavy VIP Gift Bag is worth every penny.

3.
Bridgehampton Polo is back with a class and style not seen for over a decade, not to mention a few Ferraris. This year only 350 VIP's with enjoy the polished surroundings, champagne, and caviar, and front row seats as they watch this high goal game each week. You're sure to spot the very handsome
Ralph Lauren Polo model Nachos Figueras there on or off the horse.
4. The
Ellen Hermanson Breast Center at
Southampton Hospital and
Ellen's Well, will literally be "fired up" this year at
HEAT at the home of Howard and Gayle Sobel.
Geoffrey Zakarian,
Iron Chef and owner of
the Lamb's Club,
David Burke of
Townhouse,
John Villa of
Tao and
John DeLoach of
Lavo along with
Claudia Fleming, award winning pastry chef, formerly of
Gramercy Tavern and now owner of
North Fork Table & Inn, will host their own tables, all serving their signature creations.
5. New "
American Idol" judge Mariah Carey and hubby Nick Cannon of "America's Got Talent" headline the list of A-Listers heading over
Russell Simmons' East Hampton estate Saturday night for the annual
Art For Life "Living In Color" extravaganza hosted by Soledad O'Brien. With special performances by
Anita Baker, the legendary
Salt-N-Pepa, and Diggy Simmons and and auction hosted by
Star Jones you can be sure people will be talking about this event for years!
6. Theater, art, fashion, and society collide at the
Watermill Center under the direction of
Robert Wilson. The theme of this years' summer gala is
"The Big Bang" and the dress code is POP. Does that sound a little vague to you? Needless to say the art lovers that attend will find inspiration in the suggestion and they'll be a colorful crowd dancing under the stars after the live auction.
