Montauk seafood, dance at LongHouse, comedy, art and a Southampton house tour lead Spark Hamptons’ picks for Sept. 10-17 — plus food, music and stargazing on the North Fork.

Summer may be unofficially over, but the East End calendar certainly isn’t. This week brings the Montauk Seafood Festival, dance at LongHouse, a look behind the hedges in Southampton, comedy in Riverhead, art exhibitions, film, live music and more. And with some good reasons to cross the Peconic, we’ve added a North Fork section to this week’s picks.
