With the summer season coming upon us, more and more restaurants are opening up their doors, shaking off the dust of the long winter break. As with this tradition, so comes another on the Island, what we like to call the “chef shuffle.” Many beloved Island chefs find new creative endeavors for the season which can be very exciting ...

Back in the 1800’s there was a market on South Summer Street in the heart of the village of Edgartown. Imagine walking in, seeing your neighbors, catching up on the latest happenings, all while getting the freshest milk, local eggs, or perhaps some sugar. Now, imagine doing that today, in the same location at Rosewater Market &...

Not sure about you, but my skin has seen enough of this harsh New England winter, and could use a little TLC. With that in mind, I thought it was a good time to learn about Bluewave Body Company, body products made in Oak Bluffs. I met with owner and founder, Gwyneth Wallace, on the coldest morning of spring, at Mocha Motts in OB,&...

Spring has finally sprung. Well at least according to the calendar (in one day) because the weather sure doesn’t tell you that. So in celebration of this season of color and joy, I wanted to introduce you to someone who injects a lot of life and color into the world through her work and creations, Libby Ellis.

UPDATE: Shiretown Meats Closed its 2018. They will be missed With winter’s grasp finally releasing the Island, and the soon-to-bloom spring talk of what’s new — I decided it was time to quickly visit another iconic Island place that I have yet to try. Shiretown Meats.

This week, Point B was at the Club along with our friends from the Harbor View Hotel, to take a first-hand look at how and where the fundraising money is going, as well as present a ceremonia...

Every winter, we say there’s nothing to do on Martha’s Vineyard. However, we all know that’s not true. Sometimes you have to create your own fun or now — you can head to Loft at Dreamland in Oak Bluffs. JB Blau and his team are at it again, creating a playground for adults where Dreamalnd is located (above JB’s MV Chowder Company ...

I say this time and again, but I am always amazed at what this small Island produces. There is such an array of talented, forward-thinking individuals who are not afraid to venture into something new. Have you heard of EQL? It’s a wedding magazine specializing in weddings and destinations for LGBT couples. In case you might n...

Though tired of saying this, I wish this Winter would end. It’s the longest, coldest, snowiest I can remember, and my somewhat sunny disposition has turned a little grey. When I heard that the Harbor View Hotel was hosting a comedy night last Friday, I immediately thought that perhaps laughter would indeed be the best medicine and...
