April 4: Martha Clara Winter Concert Series
Martha Clara Vineyard runs events throughout the off-season. Just one example is a 21 and older evening concert series that starts in January and ends in April, this year Saturday April 4. These shows usually sell out, so buy tickets early. The final show this year is White Wedding Band, an ’80s tribute band. People are encouraged to dress their ‘80s best. http://www.marthaclaravineyards.com
