It might be too late to sign up as volunteer for a the Tribeca Film Festival, but you're not yet out of time to volunteer at the Nantucket Film Festival, which kicks on June 22nd. The four-day festival includes programs, panels and screenings with some of Hollywood's most notable directors, producers, screenwriters and actors on Nantucket Island. Last year, Sarah Silverman, Ben Stiller, and Andy Samberg were among the fest's A-List panelists.

According to the fest's website, they are looking for "seriously dedicated individuals to work at the Festival's theaters and production office." Though the festival is unable to provide housing for volunteers, they do accept volunteers from around the world. To lend a hand, download the Nantucket Film Festival Volunteer Application and email the completed form to info@nantucketfilmfestival.org and by fax at 646-365-3367.

This year's complete program information and festival passes will be available April 26.

Summer film-going doesn't always have to mean massive blockbusters. Combine a great getaway with a well-established film festival in a stunning location and you're set. The 13th Annual Nantucket Film Festival runs June 19-22, featuring independent, studio-produced, foreign, documentary and short films in every genre, including world and US premieres.]]> sedona 2008-06-09T12:00:02-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2008/4/13/214619/073

If you're a wine aficionado but don't want to trek all the way to Napa this spring, you can keep it East Coast during the the 12th Annual Nantucket Wine Festival from May 14-18.

The fest is staged entirely in downtown Nantucket, making everything walkable and easy to find. And what's "everything" you ask? An amazing line-up including seminars from famous epicureans (Jody Adams, Anthony Susi and more) to an auction dinner at the White Elephant to a special "Great Wines in Grand Houses" program where guests enjoy intimate wine tastings in some of the island's classic--and classy--homes.

Tickets are going quickly for all events, but if you want to splurge, buy the "Grand Cru" for $550 per person and you'll have an all-access pass to the week's events. If you're looking for a quaint spot to stay, check out The Cottages, a collection of 33 little rental homes set on Nantucket's wharf, a short walk from downtown. Don't forget your whale critter tie!

You aren't going to be finding a Starbucks on Nantucket, and if you ask for one, god help you, you might get pummeled on the spot.

Luckily there are plenty of good spots on the Island to grab a morning bagel or pastry and a tasty caffeinated beverage. Some of the spots feel glam, some feel local, sine are worth the extra walk, and some are not even worth mentioning.

Once on Nantucket you are going to want to find a nice spot to soak in the nightlife. Yes, it is a quiet island, but that doesn't mean there is nothing to do once the sun goes down. With the uber-rich summer crowd co-mingling nightly with the twenty somethings looking to make a boatload of cash in local restaurants, bars, and hotels, you are bound to find some party action, if you know where to look.

Whether you need a drink to recover from your hectic workweek, bask in the glow of your glorious summer island retreat, or put up with the onslaught of men in pink shirts and critter pants--point is most folks on Nantucket need a drink.
