Casting
couches
The Martha's Vineyard Independent Film Festival is putting out a call
for couches. Do you have a couch to lend for the weekend? Any shape
or size will do. Festival couch collectors will pick-up on Friday,
March 18 and return the furniture on Monday, March 21. In return for
your weekend couch donation you will receive three free tickets to
any film and three bags of popcorn.
Interested couches (or their owners) should call Thomas Bena at 508-645-2705.
Printmakers'

whose work will be on display. Meet the printmakers and learn more
about their craft on Sunday, 4 to 6 pm. For more information, call

Vintage voices
and love songs
Contrary to the Paul McCartney ditty, people have not had enough
of silly love songs. To prove that point, the Vintage Voices will
sing an entire concert, Love Songs, For Better or For Worse,
next Monday, March 14, 1:30 pm, at the Tisbury Senior Center.
Under the direction of Philip Dietterich, Vintage Voices is a group
of Islanders who sing for the love of it. The fun program will examine
the many states of love through songs like People Will Say
We're In Love and I'm Just A Girl Who Can't Say No
from the musical Oklahoma!; the bittersweet Send
In the Clowns; and the liberation anthem, I'm Gonna
Wash That Man Right Out Of My Hair from South Pacific.
The free concert is open to everyone and is sure to wash away some
of your winter gray.
