The 2025/26 New Year will mark 25 years since the last First Night event on Martha’s Vineyard. The Martha’s Vineyard Youth Task Force, in collaboration with Visit Vineyard Haven, is planning a First Night event for families from 6 to 8 pm on Dec. 31, and they are seeking nonprofits to participate. If you are interested and want to learn more, please reach out to Angela Knapp at aknapp@mvyouthtaskforce.org.
