Vineyard Preservation Trust
The Martha’s Vineyard Preservation Trust currently owns and maintains 18 historic properties central to the Island Community. Could you imagine West Tisbury without Alleys and The Grange?  What about Edgartown without The Old Whaling Church and Daniel Fisher House? Oak Bluffs without the Flying Horses Carousel and Union Chapel? Thankfully, you will never have to. These cultural icons and cultural centers of our community are well cared for and full of life — now and preserved for the future through the work of the Martha’s Vineyard Preservation Trust.

The Chilmark School

Education in Chilmark, 1663- Present

During the earliest settling of Chilmark in 1663, the school and church operated together, meeting in homes in the Quenames area. State records mention a school in that part of town in 1663. By 1841 the town had three school districts and enrolled 146 children, with four teachers.

Today’s Chilmark School proudly joins the long succession of educational facilities in the town of Chilmark providing quality local education for up island residents.
