Island Time, July 23 – 29: Vineyard Dreams
July 23, 2020
The week ahead brings opportunities to bid on one-of-a-kind Martha’s Vineyard experiences, to hear live music, and to take a custom guided wildlife tour — on land or over water. Of course you can always grab a carry-out meal and bask at the beach or sit by the waterfront and watch the boating world go by. The Complete Martha’s Vineyard Calendarlists your day-by-day event options; here are five to consider in the days to come:
Explore the smooth waters of Cape Pogue Wildlife Refuge by kayak on a guided tour with a natural history guide this Friday or Saturday morning, 9:30 am. to 11:30 a.m. Family-friendly and kids over 5 are welcome. Advance ticket purchase is required.
Felix Neck Wildlife Sanctuary in Edgartown will pair you and your quaran-team of up to nine people with a personal naturalist for a guided exploration tailored to your interests, from dissecting owl pellets and story time visits with live critters to simple contemplation. Adventures are available by arrangement between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m
Martha’s Vineyard filmmakers Kate Davis and David Heilbroner’s new documentary Born into the Gig, which spotlights musicians including Island siblings Sally Taylor and Ben Taylor, screens Saturday as part of the virtual Woods Hole Film Festival. The directors will also take part in a virtual Q&A.
Cousen Rose Gallery in Oak Bluffs hosts an in-person Meet the Artist event with Magi Leland, an accomplished painter of landscapes and sea views, Saturday from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Island pianist Adele Dreyer will perform.
Every summer, dreams come true at the Possible Dreams auction. This year promises to be full of new surprises, as television star Seth Meyers hosts a live stream of the Island’s biggest charity event.
Benefiting Martha’s Vineyard Community Services, the auction—famous for its celebrity appearances — takes place online Sunday from 5 p.m. to 7:30p.m.
