As Thanksgiving approaches, holiday shopping and special events are beginning to pop up around the Island, with safety protocols in place. Watch for extended hours and the return of some businesses that are usually closed for the season. Many local shops offer curbside pickup or reserved shopping times, so call ahead or visit their websites for more information. You’ll also want to check out What’s Open, What’s Closed on Martha’s Vineyard for restaurant and other business updates.
