Chautauqua’s intergenerational appeal and reputation as a great place for a family vacation is the topic of discussion. Many of the visitors who return to Chautauqua year after year describe it as an experience rather than a vacation — a place for renewal. The Chautauqua Institution was founded on the belief that everyone “has a right to be all that he can be — to know all that he can know.” The experiences come in many forms. A dramatic lakeside setting and the beauty of its National Historic Landmark architecture (it was designated a National Historic Landmark June 30, 1989) make the Chautauqua Institution a thriving community where visitors come to find intellectual and spiritual growth and renewal.
