Support Historic Preservation
What would the Island be like if these historic landmarks were not there?
Forty-eight years ago, leaders in our community saved downtown Edgartown from becoming a parking lot. Today, the Vineyard Preservation Trust preserves and manages a collection of twenty iconic properties for the community, central to the culture and story of life on Martha’s Vineyard.
The Trust is a tax-exempt and non-profit organization supported entirely by public contributions and the management of its historic properties. All gifts are fully tax-deductible. (Tax Exempt #04.6387676).
