We suppose, since you ran an article on the sale of the Field Gallery, that you would be the logical venue for us to gush.
My family and I, plus the ghosts of my parents, are just ecstatic about the sale of the gallery to the town of West Tisbury. We are grateful to the selectmen for their indefatigable efforts, and especially for the overwhelming support of the town meeting voters.
How wonderful it was at the Menemsha Cafe! Great food in the “home” of friends.
We were there the last night and look forward to opening night whenever and wherever that might be.
Love to Josh, Angela and Eli.

Michael West rang a Tibetan bowl to begin the Winter Solstice Gathering of Poetry and Song held at the Vineyard Haven Library last Wednesday evening. William Waterway then raised the tone to celestial spheres as he played a Native American pipe; long, wooden and wide and draped with leather fringe.
