Can you believe it’s been 32 years since Crooklyn premiered in 1994? 🎬 Spike Lee’s semi-autobiographical coming-of-age film gave us a heartfelt look at Black family life in 1970s Brooklyn through the eyes of young Troy Carmichael, played by Zelda Harris. With unforgettable performances from Alfre Woodard and Delroy Lindo, a soundtrack full of soul and nostalgia, and storytelling rooted in memory, Crooklyn remains one of the most beloved films in Spike Lee’s catalog. Funny, tender, loud, messy, loving, just like family. What’s your favorite moment from Crooklyn? ⬇️

The Vineyard Lounge energy is different ✨ From conversations and culture to unforgettable style to the premiere of A Portrait of the American Dream: Oak Bluffs to the iconic @ralphlauren Martha’s Vineyard collection. Last year was definitely one for the books. What was your favorite Vineyard Lounge moment? #MVAAFF #Joy #SummersFinestFilmFestival #RalphLauren OakBluffs

There are rooms we walk into every day where we are expected to perform. To be polished. To be composed. To be exceptional without pause. The C-Suite Summit is not one of those rooms. It is a space for connection, restoration, leadership, sisterhood, and joy. From powerful conversations to unforgettable moments like our C-Suite luncheon on the Vineyard, every experience is intentionally designed to pour back into the women in the room. This October, we gather again for the C-Suite Summit, taking place October 15–18, 2026 at the Park Hyatt Aviara Resort, Golf Club & Spa in Carlsbad. Because joy matters. Community matters. And being surrounded by women who truly see and uplift you matters. Have you secured your ticket yet? We cannot wait to experience this beautiful weekend with you. #CSuiteSummit #Womenwholead #Summersfinestfilmfest #MVAAFF #ChooseJoy

Joy is in the details. ☕️✨ From the rhythm of the pour to the stories behind every cup, moments like these are what make the Martha’s Vineyard African-American Film Festival so special. Last year, we loved having @hastaluegofriend_ on the grounds, bringing culture, creativity, and joy to every sip. From coquito matcha to meaningful conversations, it was more than coffee, it was connection. As we celebrate JOY as this year’s theme, we can’t wait to create even more moments like this with you. Have you secured your day pass yet? And if you joined us last year, did you stop by the coffee bar? What was your favorite drink? See you on the Vineyard this August. #MVAAFF #SummersFinestFilmFestival #Joy
