Nantucket Fair

It’s that time of year again – the Nantucket Fair is back – bigger and better – planned for September 11 and 12 at Tom Nevers.

The fair combines competitive competitions, creative games, and activities for the whole family. It’s brought to you by a host of island organizations including the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, Strong Wings, The Children’s House, Nantucket Bee Keepers, The Loring Foundation, Nantucket Disc Golf, The Rebecca’s, The Sons of the American Legion, Foods for Here and There, and The Nantucket High School Art Club and Shop Class. Get in touch now if you’d like to volunteer to help and get free lunch, free admission, and it counts toward community service hours (Nantucket High School requires 20 hours of community work to graduate).
