Chautauqua & Chat

Each Chautauqua & Chat webinar features a 60-minute performance by a scholar who impersonates a significant historical figure (Mark Twain, Sacagawea, Frederick Douglass). Attendees have the opportunity to ask questions of both the historical character and the scholar. This online program is always free and open to the public.
