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.

Chautauquas often brought in speakers, musicians, preachers, teachers, authors, and other leaders of the time.
