The Amagansett native says the school instills the importance of working for a greater cause, \u201cwhether that is working with the South Fork Natural History Museum counting frogs or doing a project when I was in law school teaching photography in Africa.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>These days Cinque, 27, lends his expertise to various philanthropic causes and has a special passion for East Hampton\u2019s Guild Hall. Cinque believes the venue, which hosts multiple art forms from music to theater to the visual arts, is unique. \u201cI haven\u2019t found a museum as diverse in their programming. On the same walls that de Koonings are hung in parts of the year, they also hang student art from local schools,\u201d he says. Guild Hall will exhibit works by Taryn Simon and Richard Avedon this summer. The show, \u201cAvedon\u2019s America,\u201d is set to open August 11 at the annual summer gala, which Cinque also supports<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou could have an exhibition of Roy Lichtenstein, a Louis C.K. stand-up performance, and an Arthur Miller play on view,\u201d he says of the arts center\u2019s lineup. \u201cYou can always find something you click with at Guild Hall.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SCENE SPIRIT OF GENEROSITY\u2026 PHILANTROPIST NICHOLAS CINQUE ON GUILD HALL AND HIS PASSION FOR GIVING BACK TO HIS EAST HAMPTON COMMUNITY By R.
