Sad news for ACE MV and for our entire community: Peggy Thayer, Ph.D., who was one of the very important "Founding Mothers" of the ACE MV group to create graduate and undergraduate credit courses on Island, died suddenly Tuesday, January 5th. Her spirit and excitement about offering her Psychology class here, her encouraging ways to help others craft their syllabus, to keep up the good fight to facilitate a culture of learning on the Island, to find creative ways to make it all happen and her wonderful sense of humor and artistic being will be so missed.
ACE MV provides stimulating, and revitalizing educational opportunities by offering a variety of interesting and creative classes for enrichment, practical training, college credit, and life-long learning.
ACE MV in partnership with the MV Public Schools and other community groups is dedicated to offering classes that nurture, refresh, enhance and connect, bridging generations and cultures, improving the quality of life for all members of our community.

About the Cover Artist: Cover artist/poet
Kara Taylor received her BFA from Maine College of Art majoring in ceramic
sculpture with a concentration in intaglio printmaking. Her first Juried solo
exhibition of paintings was in Maui and she has since participated in various
group shows in New England, and an International Exhibition. In 2000,
after a stimulating trip to India, she returned home to the Vineyard to open a
successful gallery in West Tisbury. Five years later, she moved to her Vineyard
Haven gallery: "Kara Taylor Fine Art" on Main Street. Visit the
gallery, or view her fabulous creations, including her poetry at her website: http://karataylorart.com. Kara says: "My native place of Martha's Vineyard continues
to be the source for home, gallery, family, and inspiration."
