Cookson’s La Mer Et L’Été will take center stage for the evening, showcasing her distinctive watercolor work inspired by the sea and summer.

The celebration will also feature a weekend guest jewelry residency with designers Katey Brunini and Chris Davies, alongside Stella Flame’s own jewelry designs.

Specialty cocktails will be provided by Sotol Roma, and a portion of proceeds from the evening will benefit charity: water, the nonprofit organization working to bring clean and safe drinking water to people around the world.

Lucy Cookson

Cookson, whose work was previously featured by Spark Hamptons, is known for luminous watercolors that capture the natural beauty of the East End, from its coastal landscapes and wildlife to the small details of summer life.

Her La Mer Et L’Été solo exhibition brings that distinctly Hamptons perspective to Stella Flame Gallery for the anniversary weekend.
