A PRIVATE CLUB FOR PUBLIC GOOD
Who We Are, What We do.
The Women’s Club of Vero Beach, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization that has been in existence since 1915. Our mission is to promote friendship among all women in Indian River County, host educational activities, provide charitable outreach to the community through philanthropic projects and volunteer program and to preserve the historic landmark building for all citizens to enjoy now and in the future.
We are a private club for public good and meet between October through May of each year.
We welcome all women to join in the fun as our club reenergizes and continues to grow.
1534 21st Street: An Historic Preservation Project
Known as the home of the Women’s Club of Vero Beach, Vero Beach’s original library, or the “cute little brown building across from the courthouse,” the historic building at 1534 21st Street has a rich 100-plus-year history of serving our community. Today, we find ourselves at a critical inflection point in this building’s history.
The building is in a state of disrepair, with safety concerns that jeopardize its future. We, the Board of Directors of the Women’s Club of Vero Beach and its members, are charged with the responsibility of preserving one of the oldest standing buildings in Vero Beach.
This is a responsibility we take seriously, so much so that we aren’t just looking for patches or quick fixes. With the generous support of a historic preservation specialist and renowned local female architect, who both stand behind our mission, we have developed an exciting vision and plan to bring the building back to its former glory – a special, beautiful and affordable space that can be enjoyed by our community in the heart of our convenient and thriving historic downtown district.
