The VCS Community Art Project
Please join the Vineyard Conservation Society in honoring our extraordinary island. Current events have made certain things extraordinarily clear.
For VCS, one of these points of clarity is the incredible importance of our
open space in nourishing both nature and the human spirit. Whether it is written thoughts, a photograph, a piece of artwork, or anything
else you can think of, please add to our patchwork quilt of appreciation for
this amazing place we are so fortunate to call home. This project is open to all, with no age or skill level
requirements. In these challenging times, we can all benefit from a greater
sense of connection with nature. The current theme for the project is "Meadows & Fields." Coming months will bring in new themes, as we all know the
Vineyard is blessed with a diversity of places in which to find solace and
inspiration. So, if your thoughts and feeling turn more toward the plains, or the forests, you can bet the time will come!
