The Quintessential Gentleman, this year’s cultural partner of the Hamptons Fine Art Fair, hosted an unforgettable Sunday Funday, bringing together a select group of media personalities, influencers, and art enthusiasts to celebrate Black creativity and excellence.

The event, powered by CAMUS Cognac, highlighted and supported Black artists in a traditionally inaccessible setting to underrepresented communities.

The day started in Manhattan's Lower East Side, where guests were greeted and shuttled to the Hamptons. The journey began with a celebratory toast from Eric Keith, the founder of The Quintessential Gentleman, who expressed gratitude to CAMUS Cognac for sponsoring the influencer shuttle, setting a luxurious and welcoming tone for the day ahead.

"Bringing Black creatives and art enthusiasts to the Hamptons Fine Art Fair is not just about representation; it's about celebrating and expanding our presence in the arts. It's time for Black people to get more into the arts, to share our stories, and to influence the cultural landscape in meaningful ways," Eric Keith also shared about his vision for the event.

Upon arrival at the fair, attendees were treated to a private VIP reception hosted by The Quintessential Gentleman and CAMUS Cognac. The reception featured expertly crafted CAMUSCINO cocktails and a Raspberry Sidecar, creating a sophisticated ambiance to the fairgrounds.

The event also included a guided tour of the fair, providing guests with insights into the artists’ visions and processes. This experience allowed for a deeper appreciation of the artwork, as each gallerist shared stories behind their pieces, making the experience both educational and inspirational.

The Hamptons Fine Art Fair, known for being the largest art fair on the East End, featured 150 exhibitors from 14 countries and showcased over 800 artists, ranging from emerging talents to renowned masters. This broad spectrum ensured that all attendees found something that resonated with their tastes and interests.

The day concluded with heartfelt thanks from The Quintessential Gentleman team, and guests departed with exclusive gifts from sponsors including Google, which donated the latest Nest Indoor Cameras, and wellness brand Keep Smiling Therapy, in addition to special offerings from CAMUS Cognac.

Sunday Funday at the Hamptons Fine Art Fair was more than just an event; it was a powerful statement on the importance of accessibility, inclusion, and celebrating Black artistry. The Quintessential Gentleman continues to champion these values, committed to creating opportunities and partnerships that uplift and highlight Black culture in all its diverse forms.
