Sunseekers rejoice! The iconic Colony Hotel from Palm Beach is popping up at Christie’s Southampton featuring the Carpenters Workshop Gallery for Summer 2021. Christie’s and The Colony are excited to launch their “home and home” style partnership starting with The Colony in residence at Christie’s Southampton.

In celebration of the new partnership between Palm Beach’s Pink Paradise and the legendary auction house, guests will discover The Colony’s signature double scalloped umbrellas, cabana stripe loungers, and (of course) the unmistakable pink and green Beach Buggy in the heart of Southampton overlooking Agawam Park.  Pre-shopping or post-tennis, The Colony will delight guests with frozen treats from their bespoke ice cream cart, as well as sips of OUT EAST rose.  It’s the perfect spot for a Florida fix, and to grab a glimpse into the singular Colony experience.

The Colony at Christie’s Southampton will be open from11am to 6pm, Tuesday to Sunday, located at 1 Pond Lane, Southampton, NY. For additional information, please contact: Southampton@christies.com or 212-636-2600.
