Marla Sanford, Nantucket by Design 2024 co-chair, says, “We made a commitment to further elevate this year’s program, offering more calendar days and, in turn, more speaking engagements. Our headlining speakers set the tone, which is reinforced by the additional A-list luminaries that are joining us in celebrating the island’s creativity, culture, and commitment to craftsmanship.”

Bill Richards, Nantucket by Design 2024 co-chair, continues, “Nantucket by Design not only illuminates Nantucket’s rich historical and design significance but also preserves it for future generations as the Nantucket Historical Association’s key fundraising event. We are thrilled to be joined by the incredible roster of design leaders, who are lending their talent and voices in support of the NHA’s mission of commemorating Nantucket’s legacy while maintaining historic properties, programs, and collections for the enrichment of the island.”

Nantucket by Design is made possible through the generosity of its lead sponsors, William Raveis Nantucket and Woodmeister Master Builders.
