The Carnegie Heritage Center

Nestled in the heart of historic Edgartown on Martha’s Vineyard, The Carnegie offers a charming and sophisticated setting for your next event.

The handsome Neoclassical structure served as the town library from 1904 until 2016, when a newer, larger public library building was constructed on another site. After an extensive restoration, the Vineyard Preservation Trust reopened the landmark and transformed the space into an island Heritage Center. This venue houses our Living Landmarks exhibit, which illustrates the historical development of Martha’s Vineyard through the lens of the landmarks in Vineyard Preservation Trust’s care. In addition to being open to the public and a place to schedule our own programming this venue can be rented for cocktail style events, meetings and presentations.
