From informal gatherings and private tours to lectures and themed programs, these occasions offer a chance to connect, learn, and enjoy good food, drink, and conversation with fellow enthusiasts.

We welcome opportunities to collaborate with other nonprofits, museums, historical societies, and educational programs that share our commitment to preserving and promoting Victorian heritage. Events might include a behind-the-scenes tour of a historic site, a special lecture by a subject expert, or a reception tied to an exhibition or preservation project.

When we partner with you, the Alumni Association can help make your event a success by promoting it to our members, sharing it on our Facebook page, and connecting you with alumni in your area. Our involvement also helps raise awareness of the VSA Summer Schools, highlight our scholarship programs, and inspire new participants to attend — many of whom will go on to become future alumni and lifelong advocates for preservation.
