MAYVILLE – The Chautauqua County Visitors Bureau is announcing a new fall learning festival set for October of this year. The Colors of Chautauqua festival will follow in the footsteps of two successful Chautauqua in June learning festivals. Officials say the fall event is held in the tradition of lifelong learning popularized by Chautauqua Institution more than 138 years ago.
Visitors as well as residents can register for classes and learn kitchen and gardening techniques, take lessons in creating artwork and crafts, join guided walking tours, discover ways to research family history, and expand their knowledge of local foods, wine, and beer. The two-week schedule from October 5-21, 2012 includes more than 40 different workshops. Classes are held in both indoor and outdoor classrooms across Chautauqua County.
