The board of directors of MVYRADIO, the nonprofit organization behind the Vineyard radio station WMVY, announced that it has reached an agreement to purchase a building in West Tisbury that will become the new home of the radio station and its studios.

The station will buy 489 State Road in West Tisbury, currently the home of Vineyard Complementary Medicine, which will be relocating their main office to Post Office Square in Edgartown in October 2019. The closing date is set for Oct. 1.

Later this summer MVYRADIO will announce details of a capital campaign to cover the cost of purchasing the property, outfitting the building with modern studios, and creating proper office space to accommodate the staff.

WMVY has been located on Carrolls Way in Vineyard Haven since the early 1980s. Despite the plan to move the studios and offices to West Tisbury, the station will still maintain a presence at this original site, as the transmitter, tower and engineering equipment will remain in place on Carrolls Way.

WMVY has been broadcasting with live DJs from Martha’s Vineyard since 1983 and streaming worldwide since 1999. Originally a commercial enterprise, the station converted to an independent, Massachusetts based 501c3 nonprofit agency in 2013.
