In partnership with Pathways Arts, storytellers gathered on November 18th at the Chilmark Tavern to share their hopes and visions for a more vibrant future. Storytellers included: Jan Buhrman, Hazel Myers, Nancy Aronie, Rye Silva, Susan Desmaris, Marty Weiss, Owen Silva, Lisa Gross, Fran Schumer, Linda Prestley, Mary Lou Shriber, Julia Kidd, Bernice McIntyre, Moira Silva, and Sarah Carey.

Another Way’s mission is to bring together people who are interested in envisioning what “care” can look like in the near or distant future. This inclusive community arts initiative features supportive workshops and live readings on Martha’s Vineyard, in New York City, and beyond. It focuses on moving from complaining to creating — an invitation to look toward the light and one other. 

Another Way co-creative producers Sarah Carey and Moira Silva are planning several follow-up events, including generative workshops and community sharings, to the one that took place at Pathways on Nov. 18. Carey and Silva have partnered with Vineyard Conservation Society and are forging more community partnerships. They are also working with M.V. Bank and the high school as they prepare for the next event on Feb. 12, at 5:30 pm at Bunch of Grapes. The evening will include light refreshments.
