A
hearty pot-luck dinner and a warm, friendly atmosphere draw
a crowd of Islanders to the First Congregational Church
of West Tisbury every Wednesday evening for a community
supper. Everyone brings a special dish, and it’s a
comfortable, social time. Children play nearby as guests
chat with friends and make new acquaintances. The suppers
have been held all winter, and the last one is scheduled
for March 30.
