Program Sponsorship
As a Chautauqua Women’s Club member, we know you share our commitment to life-long learning. Since 1889, CWC has provided relevant programming to the CHQ community and beyond. In addition to our in-season weekly Contemporary Issues Forum (CIF) and Chautauqua Speaks programs, the Chautauqua Academy offers year-round programming, group adventures, and other opportunities beyond the gates of Chautauqua.
Program sponsorship allows intellectually curious members like you to support CWC’s programming each year. Your contribution ensures that we can host remarkable speakers, deliver inspiring lectures, and foster a vibrant community of life-long learners.
As a program sponsor, you will enjoy exclusive opportunities to connect with distinguished speakers, gain access to coveted benefits, and be prominently recognized for your support.
YOUR generous support as a program sponsor advances CWC’s vision to enrich the communities we touch!
