ART & SOUL: Hamptons, a Summer Festival of Arts & Culture Returns for it’s 3rd Year, in Partnership with the SOUTHAMPTON AFRICAN AMERICAN MUSEUM and the SOUTHAMPTON ARTS CENTER

Southampton, New York Jun 11, 2024 (Issuewire.com) – Join us July 19 & 20, 2024 at ART & SOUL: Hamptons for a weekend filled with art and cultural experiences, celebrating influential and emerging BIPOC artists living in the Hamptons community and beyond. The series of experimental events will encourage people to visit Southampton to engage and connect with artists of color, as well as support art and cultural organizations who are passionate about diversity in the arts. Curated experiences include an art walk, culinary experience, film screening, live music and entertainment, a cocktail party, and more.

ART & SOUL: Hamptons will kick off on July 19th at the Southampton Arts Center — a hub that is helping to strengthen arts and culture for the entire community. Featured artists include Art Sims and Reynoir Lewis. A culinary tasting will be presented by the Black Culinary Expo featuring Chef Sandy Pierre, Chef Osei Blackett, and Chef Ronica Copes. New England Sweetwater will host a sipping experience and educate guests about their spirits and cocktails, handcrafted in New Hampshire at their family-owned distillery. To enhance the Hamptons experience, there will be champagne toasts, live music, beauty and lifestyle activations, and a wellness lounge. The evening will end with ‘Art After Dark’, after party hosted in the sculpture garden.

On July 20th, Jeremy Dennis will host a private guided museum tour of Ma’s House & BIPOC Art Studio where guests will learn about the history, culture, and contributions by the Native American Shinnecock Tribe. Following the art tour, visitors are encouraged to participate in the ‘Art Walk’ happening in Southampton – the art hub of the Hamptons, where they can view artwork by the artists in residency.

The first stop will be at the Southampton African American Museum (SAAM), founded by Brenda Simmons. “I’m proud to say this is SAAM’s 3rd year partnering with ART & SOUL: Hamptons. They have been profoundly instrumental in inviting, enlightening, and engaging visitors from near and far to the Hamptons, who are discovering the rich history of art and culture contributed by the BIPOC community”, says Simmons. Artist Alvin Clayton’s latest art collection premieres at SAAM on July 20th.

The second stop will be at the Southampton Arts Center, featuring artwork by various artists participating in the ‘Beyond The Streets: Post Graffiti’ art exhibition. Southampton Art Center’s mission is building community through the Arts, and we are delighted to once again collaborate with ART & SOUL: Hamptons and our neighbors at SAAM and Ma’s House to welcome all to the center and engage with us!” says Strassfield.

The third and final stop of the art walk will be at Hidden Gem NY, a home decor and lifestyle boutique owned by sisters Tanya Willock and Temidra Willock-Morsch. After visiting the vibrant art organizations in Southampton, a private brunch will be co-hosted by Brown Skin Brunchin’.

The festival wraps up with an opening reception to celebrate artist Alvin Clayton‘s residency at the Southampton African American Museum, which is available for viewing through October 2024. Guests will enjoy an interactive digital experience, live music and entertainment, soul food and Caribbean bites, and Caribbean-inspired cocktails sponsored by New England Sweetwater. A screening of ‘CROWN’, a short film that celebrates Black hair, will be presented by co-writer/co-director Karisma Jay.

Published

United Kingdom, 23rd Jan 2026 – Glasgow, UK. My Beautiful Bathroom announces a major refresh of its Glasgow showroom as part of the company’s 10-year milestone. The updated space now features five new bathroom displays and three new kitchen displays for 2026. New Mistral worktops form part of the kitchen range.

Celebrating 10 Years of My Beautiful Bathroom

My Beautiful Bathroom has supported homeowners across Glasgow and beyond for ten years. The business focuses on helping customers plan and visualise bathrooms and kitchens before installation. The showroom update reflects a decade of customer feedback, design experience, and product knowledge.

Five New Bathroom Displays Added to the Showroom

The new bathroom displays show complete, real-scale room settings. Each display combines baths, showers, tiles, wetwalls, furniture, flooring, and accessories. The layouts help you compare styles and finishes side by side and understand how products work together in a finished space.

Three New Kitchen Displays for 2026

The showroom now features three new kitchen displays designed for everyday use. The layouts focus on storage, workflow, and clean design. These displays give you a clear view of how different door styles, finishes, and layouts look in a real environment.

Introduction of Mistral Worktops

Mistral worktops feature across the new kitchen displays. These surfaces offer strong visual appeal and practical performance. The showroom allows you to see colours, textures, and edge profiles up close before making a decision.

Expert Design Support in the Glasgow Showroom

Design consultations remain central to the My Beautiful Kitchen and Bathroom service. Degree-qualified interior designers provide 3D plans tailored to your space and budget. You can book a free design appointment and receive a no-obligation quote, often within one hour.
