A BIT ABOUT US

Founded in 1886, the VIS strives to create lasting community progress through historical

preservation, grassroots engagement, and the arts.

​

We own the Gilbert Block building, the Post Office building, and the Post Office and Overlook Parks. We coordinate community events throughout the year, including the Gilbert Block Cleanup, Gilbert Block Party, and the Pet Parade. 

​

We are only as strong as our membership, which is open to all!

Please email nancy.callahan@oneonta.edu if you'd like to join us, or get involved.
