Reflections: Celebrating our MVAA Heritage
Celebrating our 60th Anniversary!
Paying homage to our founding artists, pieces from the permanent collection will be exhibited alongside current artist members' works. Visitors will see that today’s MVAA artists are still drawing inspiration from the Vineyard in similar ways as yesterday’s founders.

Incorporated in
1954, the Martha’s Vineyard Art Association opened for the benefit of the
Island community; “to increase facilities of art education, create interest in
the arts, make an art center for the whole island, establish a permanent
collection, and preserve an old landmark.”
Over the years,
the MVAA has created a Permanent Collection of over 100 paintings by many
of the Island’s most accomplished artists. The 2014 season
marks the association’s 60th anniversary.
