Musical Mondays at Featherstone Center for the Arts in Oak Bluffs start this Monday, June 29, at 6:30 p.m. with renowned guitarist Jon Zeeman and Friends. The rolling hills at the Featherstone campus create a natural amphitheatre, an ideal environment to enjoy a picnic while absorbing the sounds of Mr. Zeeman’s funk, jazz and blues guitar.

Mr. Zeeman came of age listening to the music of Jimi Hendrix, the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. He has worked with Janis Ian, the Allman Brothers and Susan Tedeschi, and for two decades has performed his own music.

This Sunday evening the Martha’s Vineyard Hebrew Center’s Summer Institute screens a powerful documentary, Four Seasons Lodge: Survival of the Joyous, at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $10 at the door.

In 1979, nearly 100 German and Polish survivors of Nazi death camps created a sprawling retreat in New York’s Catskill Mountains, calling it the Four Seasons Lodge. Members of this unique community gathered for decades to celebrate with good food, all-night dancing, and raucous poker games.
