Jaws: Stories Beneath the Full Moon
Jaws: Stories Beneath the Full Moon
UPDATE:
Due to forecasted rain, this event has been rescheduled to August 7. All tickets will be honored for the new date. Thank you for your understanding—we look forward to seeing you under the August moon!
Join us Thursday, August 7th on the Museum’s Lewis Lawn under the full moon for a one-of-a-kind evening that re-creates the iconic opening beach party scene from Jaws. With Wayne Iacona who was a key crew member on JAWS, working behind the scenes to help bring Spielberg’s iconic thriller to life. His contributions helped shape one of the most legendary films ever made. Michael Haydn—the original acoustic guitarist from that unforgettable scene—strumming live tunes around a cozy faux campfire, this is your chance to step straight into movie magic.
You’ll hear incredible behind-the-scenes stories from Islanders and others who were part of the film or have legendary Vineyard memories tied to it. Expect laughter, nostalgia, and maybe a few shark tales you haven’t heard before.
We’ll serve up Jaws Juice mocktails and plenty of pretzels and popcorn, but feel free to bring your own picnic and beach blanket. It’s a relaxed, joyful celebration of a cinematic classic—and the island that brought it to life.
$10 per person; $25 per family (up to 5 guests)
