Music, Film, and Street Festivals Highlight Weekend Activities

Marty LeVor

The weather forecast may not corroborate this - but this weekend should be great, if you're heading out to enjoy music, film, or theater. There is a lot going on. There’s a new music festival launching in our corner of the world, and it’s on Nantucket - the Nantucket Music Festival has almost twenty acts and two days of music. In Sandwich, the Water Street Wing Fling offers food and fun activities - including hot air balloon rides (the events will happen rain or shine - but maybe not, I'm guessing, the hot air balloon rides)! And also in Sandwich on Saturday, at the Green Briar Nature Center they are thinking about jams and scones and muffins - it's Blueberry Day. On Sunday in Harwich, they call him Ireland’s finest tenor – it’s a concert by Anthony Kearns. And looking ahead, the Martha's Vineyard African-American Film Festival happens next week, with an opening reception on Monday.
