Almond's Tenth Artists & Writers Night Featuring David Kozatch

Almond announces the tenth monthly “Artists & Writers Night” hosted by writer David Kozatch on Tuesday, March 11th at 7 p.m.  The evening titled “Telling Lies: Fiction on the East End” will feature a family style three-course menu created by executive chef Jason Weiner. The cost is $40 in advance and $45 at the door with a glass of local wine or craft beer, tax and gratuity. Reservations are required.

About the Event

We all know that the Hamptons have been home to some great writers of fiction. But these authors don’t often create characters or experiences whose lives are lived here on the East End. Join David Kozatch as he hosts an evening of short readings by local authors of original fiction relating to life on the East End. David will read an excerpt from his unpublished novel. Also reading their work of short fiction are the writers Jen Senft of Southampton and Kara Westerman of East Hampton.
