goal at this time is to bring back the old Florida Theater and, along with the Heritage
Center, invite back local residents to the downtown area to live, work, shop and play.
Vero Heritage, Inc. is dedicated to the preservation of the Heritage Center and the Indian
River Citrus Museum. They provide current and future visitors the change to experience
Vero Beach’s past, to understand that “sense of place” that is Vero Beach, and the
opportunity to help preserve this important historic landmark.”

execute the event for thousands to come and enjoy the festivities. And we all do!
