LongHouse Reserve in East Hampton is currently presenting LongHouse Illuminated for the holiday season on the East End. Taking place every Friday and Saturday through December 17, visitors of all ages are welcome at two timed entry opportunities (4:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.) to experience LongHouse in a new and different way — after dark with the garden walks dotted by luminaria and sparkling sculptures.
Carol singers will greet guests along the path as they take in the beauty of the trees and flora in winter. Warm up in the market pavilion with seasonal treats and hot beverages offered by nearby booths. Holiday treats will be offered from South Fork Bakery, where the mission is to empower special needs adults who make awesome cookies with a cause. On December 17, in celebration of the winter solstice and a time of rebirth, East Hampton Food Pantry will be at LongHouse to collect food for the community in need. So bring provisions to share, and enjoy the lights.
Admission is $35 ($20 for members, $15 students, free for ages 12 and under with paying adult). For more information, visit longhouse.org. LongHouse Reserve is at 133 Hands Creek Road in East Hampton.
