Probing The Night Sky With The World's Most Powerful Microscope 8:00 pm Suggested Donation: $10 Members; $13 Non-Members; $5 Students.

Can the forces of nature be unified? What is the nature of dark matter? These are the questions that physicists from around the world will explore when the world's largest and most powerful microscope – the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the European particle physics

laboratory CERN in Switzerland – begins colliding protons later this year. It will provide an unprecedented look at the universe under

conditions where our current understanding breaks down and new phenomena might be observed, and the exciting connections between

physics at microscopic and astronomical scales will be explored at the LHC in the coming years. Speaker: Dr. George Redlinger is a staff

physicist at Brookhaven National Laboratory, where he is a member of the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. When he is not thinking about supersymmetry and dark matter, he works on making the paradigm shift from classical to jazz piano.

Fri 5/9 Film: The Apostle (1997) 7:00 pm $5 Parrish Members/$7 Non-Members

Directed by Robert Duvall. Starring Robert Duvall, Farrah Fawcett, Billy Bob Thornton. In English.  134 minutes. Oscar-winning actor Robert Duvall plays Texas preacher Euliss "Sonny" Dewey, who reacts to his wife’s infidelity by brutally beating her lover.  He leaves town, changes his name, and relocates to rural Louisiana, where he resumes preaching as “The Apostle E.F.” and helps revive an old church.  Duvall used real gospel preachers and extras carefully selected from parishes of the Deep South, and the film treats its characters with nuance and complexity.  The San Francisco Chronicle called the film “a warm, multifaceted study of a man who’s part snake-oil salesman, part loving father, part servant of God and part womanizing hothead.”  Robert Duvall received one of his six Best Actor nominations for his portrayal of “Sonny” Dewey.

Fri 5/16 Film: The Secret Life of Words (2005) 7:00 pm $5 Parrish Members/$7 Non-Members

Directed by Isabel Coixet. Starring Sarah Polley, Tim Robbins, Julie Christie. In English.  115 minutes.  Hannah, a taciturn nurse who has survived the war in Yugoslavia, works in a factory in Britain.  When her supervisor insists she take a vacation, she travels to Northern Ireland, where she winds up taking a job as a nurse on an oil rig.  There she tends Josef, a heroic burn victim.  While it captures the claustrophobic atmosphere of life on an oil rig, the film focuses on the developing relationship between the timid, hearing-impaired Hannah and the critically injured Josef, and the mysteries of Hannah’s background that are only gradually revealed.

Works of Michael Dweck 2002 – 2006

Born in Brooklyn, New York, Michael Dweck was given his first Kodak camera by his parents at the age of seven. Having studied fine arts at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, Dweck began his career in advertising. He went on to become a highly regarded Creative Director who received over 40 international awards, including the coveted Gold Lion at the Cannes International Festival. Two of his long-form television pieces are part of the permanent film collection of The Museum of Modern Art in New York. Drawing inspiration from his teenage years spent by the beach on Long Island, Dweck set out to photographically capture the vanishing surf culture of Montauk, a sleepy fishing village that in the 1970s became a haven for East Coast surfers.  Michael Dweck's internationally acclaimed first book, titled The End: Montauk, N.Y. (Harry N. Abrams, 2004), is the photographic chronicle and nostalgic tribute to that hedonistic surf community. "The ultimate homage to the sun-kissed surfing life. Sensuous, seductive and unbearably sexy in its effect," in the words of The New York Times. His second book is due out in Spring 2008.

EAST HAMPTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY 101 Main Street, East Hampton  324-6850

Osborn-Jackson House, c. 1740 101 Main Street, East Hampton

This colonial house, one of the few still in its original position on Main Street, is owned and maintained by the Village of East Hampton. Lionel Jackson donated the property to the Village of East Hampton in 1977 for use as a museum. It serves as the headquarters for the East Hampton Historical Society and a period house museum for the general public. The museum features a display of furnishings dating from about 1780 to 1820, typical of the well-to-do lifestyle of a post-colonial East End family. Open year round: Tuesday - Saturday - Hours 10 to 5 - Admission: $4 adults, $3 seniors, $2 students - Free for members

Clinton Academy, c. 1784 151 Main Street East Hampton

Clinton Academy was one of the first academies in New York State chartered by the Board of Regents. The Academy was constructed in 1784 with funds contributed by local citizens at the request of the Reverend Samuel Buell, pastor of the East Hampton Presbyterian Church.  This remarkable Academy was a coeducational institution preparing young men for college or for careers such as seafaring or surveying.  Young women were schooled in spiritual reading and the finer points of being a lady.  The first headmaster, Reverend Buell, gave instruction in Latin as well as Greek and French. Students came from a broad range of places including Long Island, New York City, New Jersey and Connecticut as well as from the West Indies.  After the State dissolved the chartered academy system, Clinton became a community center, a playhouse, town offices and briefly housed "The East Hampton Star".  This late Georgian style building was restored in 1921 by Mr. Lorenzo E. Woodhouse. Visitors can enjoy the wild flower garden behind the property installed by the Garden Club of East Hampton. Memorial Day weekend through Columbus Day, or by appointment. Admission: $4 adults, $3 seniors, $2 students - Free for members

Mulford Farm, c. 1680 10 James Lane, at Montauk Highway, East Hampton

The Mulford Farm, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is considered one of America's most significant, intact English Colonial farmsteads. The farm is of interest not merely because of its importance to the history of East Hampton, but because of its antiquity. Viewed as an artifact which has been shaped to fit the needs and the pleasure of those who have lived in it, the house itself has much to tell us about the origins of colonial New England society and the changes which still affect our lives today. The 1680 Mulford House represents one of the most important and complex artifacts produced by our culture - the family home. The survival of this house, built in 1680, is remarkable since it has been left largely unchanged since 1750. The majority of the framing and wood members of the house have been left undisturbed, enabling scholars to tell the story of the successive changes over time. The Mulford Barn, constructed in 1721, is one of the most intact early eighteenth century English-plan barn forms in New York State and is recognized as an outstanding example of early eighteenth century construction methods and materials. Open Memorial Day weekend Columbus Day weekend, or by appointment- Admission: $4 adults, $3 seniors, $2 students - Free for members

Baymen’s Last Stand: Photographs by Michael Cardacino

Former bayman Danny King’s dory-style boat, used for haul seining in Eastern Long Island, was boldly painted with red, white & blue stripes in 1992 in protest of newly enacted government regulations prohibiting haul seining fishing techniques.  These images celebrate “The Last Stand” against the law that closed the door on a way of American life and work.

Guild Hall’s 70th Artist Members Show is the oldest non-juried exhibition remaining on Long Island. This important exhibition allows Guild Hall to directly connect with the artistic community that support and inspire our arts institution all year long. Art critic Linda Yablonsky will be the 2008 Members Show Judge. For 2008, the show has been organized into two parts due to the restoration of the John Drew Theater and less gallery space. However, it means more opportunity for artists since there will be two of every prize awarded. Exhibition organized by Michelle Vertucci, Curatorial Assistant/Registrar. Linda Yablonsky is an art critic for Bloomberg News who also writes for The New York Times, Style Magazine, Art and Auction, ART News, Elle Décor. She also has a popular presence in the “Scene & Herd” column of Artforum.com. Yablonsky is the author of The Story of Junk: A Novel and she is at work on a second book.

Sun 4/6 – Sun 6/22 Paper Transformed—Origami

Based on an 800-year-old tradition of paper folding, modern origami has grown into a highly sophisticated international art form. Paper Transformed—Origami brings together nearly one hundred works by some of the world’s leading contemporary origami artists and demonstrates the diversity of technique and wide range of interpretation possible in origami today. For at least 400 years, the Japanese have been folding paper for pleasure. Creasing a thousand cranes out of white paper (the only type originally available) was thought to bring good luck. Before 1900, there were rarely more than thirty folds in origami patterns; now there may be hundreds—yet only one piece of paper may be used and it cannot be cut or glued. Nothing is added and nothing taken away. Although the advent of computer technology has expanded the ways in which patterns can be created today, this is still the essence of origami. This exhibition will afford visitors an opportunity not only to admire a breathtaking expanse of large- and small-scale works but also to create their own. Renowned origami expert Florence Temko has produced several unique folding patterns for visitors to use in the galleries. Paper Transformed—Origami has been organized by Mingei International Museum, San Diego, California, and will be exhibited for the first time on the East Coast at the Parrish.
