The celebration will launch on Friday with music from DJ Twilo and the chance to explore the galleries at the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill from 7 to 9 p.m. and an All Star Comedy Show at Bay Street in Sag Harbor at 8 p.m.
Saturday will begin at 10 a.m. with a Decorative Arts Tour at Historic Mulford Farm in East Hampton, which will run through 3 p.m. Things really heat up at 11 a.m. when you can catch Goat on a Boat Puppet Theater at Bay Street, art exhibition and garden tours at The Madoo Conservancy in Sagaponack (also until 4 p.m.) and tours of the LongHouse Reserve in East Hampton (which will also run until 4 p.m.).

"Bay Street Theater is pleased to bring an All New All Star Stand-Up Comedy Night and a concert with music from Journey and Foreigner," Tracy Mitchell, Bay Street Theater Executive Director, expressed. "It's a great way to celebrate spring with laughter and music, and working together with my fellow arts organizations!"
"HIFF is thrilled to be celebrating the 30th anniversary of the three-time Oscar nominated film Field of Dreams with a big screen viewing on Saturday of THAW Fest weekend," HIFF (Hamptons International Film Festival) Executive Director Anne Chaisson said. "HIFF encourages parents to introduce their children to this now classic film, please join us for free with RSVP."

There will also be several exhibitions on view throughout the weekend. Eastville Community Historical Society is presenting Genesis & Transcendence: Michael A.

For those looking to make a day out of it, Hamptons Visitor's Council has arranged a complimentary shuttle that will travel to THAW host sites on Saturday and Sunday.
"With the DJ Twilo dance party and Kusama film, we're pleased to present two very different programs featuring equally outstanding women artists for THAW Fest, and to celebrate Women's History month," Corinne Erni, Curator of Special Projects, added. "We're also thrilled to be opening two new exhibitions of monumental, magical photographs: Renate Aller: The Space Between Memory and Expectation, and Jean-Luc Mylayne: A Matter of Place. We hope a great number of community members, weekenders, and tourists, young and old, will take advantage of this special weekend to experience the Museum's rich programming."
The goal of Hamptons Arts Network (HAN), a consortium of not-for-profit organizations, is "to promote collaboration, partnerships, and shared programming among its members. As well, we advocate for the arts in the area of economic development, tourism, and education."
