P.A. Club Artisan Fairs
The P.A. Club in Oak Bluffs is holding a series of Vineyard Creations Fairs, the first one taking place on Sunday, June 24, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The fairs serve as fundraisers for the club’s many outreach activities, including their benevolent work and student scholarships. This year they gave away $26,000 to high school seniors.
The benevolent work involves helping members who become sick or to assist with burial costs or general ongoing needs.
Golf Tournament
Ann Heron, Tom Prendergast, Connie O’Doherty, Norman Vunk and Payton Wallace took top honors at the 18th Annual Children’s Benefit Golf Tournament, held June 3 at Farm Neck Golf Club. But the real winners of the day may have been the Boys & Girls Club and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Martha’s Vineyard, which raised more than $38,000 from the tournament.

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.
