There are new exhibits up at The Granary, Featherstone, Old Sculpin, North Water, Galaxy Gallery and many more art galleries. And ongoing events all over the Island, including the Vineyard Artisans Summer Festival, the Chilmark Flea, and the Oak Bluffs Open Market, offer art, crafts, fashion, home goods and more. Find all the art listings – as well as many more activities for all interests – in The Complete Martha’s Vineyard Calendar.
Happy 351st Birthday, Vineyard Haven! Celebrate the town with music, food, and vendors from local businesses and artists at the Tisbury Street Fair.

Saturday, July 9 is the day to celebrate Oak Bluffs at the Arts District Stroll. Galleries along Dukes County avenue and the surrounding area invite visitors to view their exhibits and meet the artists. It all begins at 4 p.m.
The Edgartown Lighthouse is open again for tours! Wind your way up the steps to catch the views over Edgartown harbor. Tours are available every day from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. through the end of August.
There’s a full moon on Wednesday and the Island’s conservation agencies will be celebrating it on water and land.
