Join us for an amazing party.  The Taste of the Vineyard is the kick-off to the Vineyard's summer social season!  The Island's finest restaurants, caterers and beverage purveyors can all be found in the same place at the same time for this one night only.  This is your chance to sample the Vineyard's best food, wine and hand-crafted beers as you catch up with old friends after a long, cold winter.  After you've been sated with a "Taste" from more than 75 outstanding fine food and beverage participants, you can dance off all those calories with the hottest band around - Jerry Bennett and the Sultans of Swing.  And, for great memories of the Taste of the Vineyard, photographer Joe Mikos will be there with his famous couch and "Shoot Yourself" camera.  Your photos are available for purchase on line the very next day!  Tickets to the Taste of the Vineyard go on sale on May 1.  Don't wait or hesitate - tickets for the Taste of the Vineyard are limited and it's always a sell-out!

AND GALA AUCTION

Dr. Fisher House Lawn, Main Street, Edgartown
This is the second of two fabulous events that jumpstart the Vineyard's summer season.  At the Patrons' Dinner and Auction, you'll feast on delectable hors d'oeuvres and savor fine beverages while previewing the auctions - Live and Silent.  After an entertaining cocktail hour, you'll be invited to be seated for a palate-pleasing dinner with a tantalizing menu designed and created by V. Jaime Hamlin and Sons Catering.  Then, hang on to your hats - here comes Trippy!  Clarence "Trip" Barnes is our inimitable auctioneer - sometimes politically incorrect, often irreverent and always entertaining.  You'll have the opportunity to bid on some of the most unique and coveted items ever presented for auction.  There's always a surprise - or two!
