Happy March! 

As we’re all rounding the corner from deep off-season to seeing the light of longer days ahead, we thought we’d pop into your inbox and share some of the exciting opportunities planned at SOS: the School for Off-Season Survival.

Is now the time to get your summer ducks in a row, with a new website or newsletter refresh? Maybe, with tax season underway, you’ve got nothing but bookkeeping on the brain?

Or maybe you’ve been hearing a call to Mind Your Creative Business?!

Whatever your late-winter inspiration may be, we’ve got you covered. Read on for course and workshop info, registration details and more. There’s just enough time to dig in to one last off-season project or pre-summer goal.

Here’s to the home-stretch!

On this (snowy!) Valentine’s Day we’re celebrating our heart-felt passion for community education, and for all of you who make this Island such a special place to live, work and love.

Read on for some lovely upcoming events, workshops and exciting program announcements!

But first — a favor. Might you consider forwarding this newsletter along to someone you think would enjoy learning about ACE and community education on MV? What better way to spread a little Island love than by helping us grow our community, and introducing your beloveds to all things ACE MV?!

Happy February, friends,

Alex, Jeni, Courtney, Sonja and Garrett

Hello, 2024!

As we jump into a new year we are busy thinking about beginnings. We know that “resolutions” can feel intimidating; here at ACE we’re using this opportunity for an annual refresh to consider projects and intentions that feel engaging, exciting and full of potential. 

Read on for some of what we’re planning and sharing this winter and spring. No matter where you find yourself, we invite you to consider your “next best move”: is now the time to dive into that new business idea? Learn a new language? Brush up on your leadership skills? 

Or maybe you just want to keep the party going! Join us on Wednesday, January 10 for a New Year Open House at Haven for refreshments, merriment and information about upcoming courses and programs at ACE and Haven MV.

We can’t wait to see what you do this year!

Greetings, all!

As we say farewell to 2023 and slide into the holiday season we are reflecting on where we’ve been and where we’re headed in the new year!

Please have a look at the “End of Year Update.” We are grateful to the many donors, foundations and organizations that have allowed us to introduce new and meaningful programming in 2023.

2024 will see the launch of new cohorts, more SOS classes and workshops, and stronger partnerships with Island high schools and regional colleges and universities. Read on for highlights below.

We look forward to supporting your educational and professional goals in 2024!

But first…
