Beautification Day on Wednesday, April 22, is a community-driven initiative dedicated to preserving Virginia City’s historic character while enhancing the appearance and experience of the Virginia City Historic District. Volunteers come together to refresh boardwalks, brighten historic buildings, and care for the spaces that make this community one of America’s most treasured historic destinations.
Your sponsorship plays a direct role in making these improvements possible. With the help of our sponsors, the Storey County Chamber of Commerce provides essential materials—paint, flowers, bins, and other supplies—that enable volunteers to complete meaningful, visible projects throughout the district. Sponsors help ensure that every participant has what they need to make a real impact.
Beautification Day brings together residents, businesses, and supporters who share a commitment to preserving Virginia City’s heritage. It’s a day of hands‑on stewardship that strengthens community pride and keeps our historic district welcoming for visitors and locals alike.
