Friends Fête
Friends Fête 2025
On July 3rd, the Nantucket Land & Water Council (NLWC) and Almanack Arts Colony hosted our annual Friends Fête event. This beautiful event celebrated Nantucket’s natural landscape and environment and highlighted the important work of both NLWC and Almanack Arts Colony!
Our event began with a presentation by
Christian Cummings, founder and Executive Director of Nonhuman Teachers, for an
exciting and unique pre-party presentation in the barn, combining science and art while helping to inspire a deeper connection to the natural world.
The rest of the lovely evening was spent on Almanack Arts Colony’s natural lawn, accompanied by an
open bar,
raw bar,
hors d’oeuvres,
the live music of Buckle and Shake, and delicious wines and libations thanks to the contribution of
Donelan Family Wines,
Cisco Brewers &
Triple Eight Distillery.
