In the pre-season weeks leading up to the launch of the 2024 Chautauqua summer, a total of 670 students from eight area schools took their pick of a bevy of Chautauqua experiences created just for them. This year, the Explore CHQ Field Trips featured performances from the Young Playwrights Project and the annual Chautauqua Regional Youth Ballet Spring Gala; tours of the Chautauqua Visual Arts Galleries; STEM activities led by Courtney Wigdahl-Perry and her team from SUNY Fredonia; bouts of fun with the Play CHQ team; and a mindfulness activity run by Chautauquans Kriss Miller and Beth Miller.
