Nantucket Shipwreck & Lifesaving Museum

​

Join us for Fairwinds in Bloom, a special evening celebrating community, resilience, and wellness. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Nantucket’s Shipwreck & Lifesaving Museum, this event offers an opportunity to support accessible behavioral health services while enjoying a night of beauty and generosity.

The evening will feature an exclusive silent auction, offering a thoughtfully curated selection of items and experiences generously donated by Nantucket businesses and supporters. Each bid helps Fairwinds continue its lifesaving mission of providing essential mental health and substance use services to those in need.

Guests will enjoy delicious hors d'oeuvres, refreshing drinks, and the serene coastal beauty of the museum grounds—a place that honors courage, perseverance, and community, values that deeply align with Fairwinds’ work.

We invite you to be part of this meaningful night, where every contribution makes a difference in building a healthier, more resilient Nantucket.

Fairwinds – Nantucket’s Behavioral Health Center provides confidential, quality professional care to adults and youth on Nantucket who seek mental health and addiction services. All are welcome, regardless of ability to pay.
