Film Society Movie
A young lover juggles passion and morals. She tries to balance atop a teetering marriage. She hides a blooming love affair. She’s got all the duties of a crowd of circus performers, but not the skill sets. Her act is crumbling.
Relax, this is not an Island resident - it’s Hester Collyer, a confused wife in post-War England in the movie, The Deep Blue Sea, playing on Saturday, June 9, at the Katharine Cornell Theatre, located at 54 Spring street in Vineyard Haven.
Ice Arena Open Forum
Here are the cold, hard facts – The Martha’s Vineyard Ice Arena plans to expand, and the public is invited to help plan. The Arena, along with Mashek MacLean Architects, will host an open forum at 5:30 p.m. on June 12 at the P.A. Club in Oak Bluffs. Everyone is invited to come and break the ice at the debate table, making suggestions for arena improvements. It will be a place to get in touch with your inner Zamboni — sharing opinions and asking questions to create a smoother ice rink experience.
Rose Treat Celebration
No one can get enough of the Vineyard. But perhaps no one had a greater talent for prolonging her Island stay than the late Rose Treat. She died on November 2, 2011 in her Sengekontacket home, just two weeks shy of turning 103 years old.
Gelatin Photography
Silver-toned gelatin may sound like an expensive and dangerous dessert, but be assured it isn’t. Vineyard resident and photographer Janet Woodcock will give a talk about her art – traditional silver-toned gelatin photography – on Saturday, June 9, at 5 p.m. at the Louisa Gould Gallery located at 54 Main street in Vineyard Haven.

The battle lines have been drawn.
For some years now the town of Oak Bluffs has hosted an annual Monster Shark Tournament during a weekend in July. The event is well attended by both fishermen and spectators. But it is also protested regularly.
