150th Season: Petoskey’s Bay View is a Historic Treasure for Residents and Visitors Alike
In the late 19th century, an adult education and social movement was moving across the United States called Chautauqua. The word was drawn from the Haudenosaunee — an Iroquois Confederacy of six nations. Centered around entertainment and culture for its members and the community, programs focused on religion, recreation, education, and the performing arts. Chautauquas often brought in speakers, musicians, preachers, teachers, authors, and other leaders of the time.
