An office suite in the business center

Dr. Robert R. Hesse Welcome and Business Center

The Dr. Robert R. Hesse Welcome and Business Center provides Chautauquans and guests with business services and a professional workspace located in the Main Gate Welcome Center. Outside the nine-week summer assembly season, a gate pass is not required to use the Business Center facilities. The center is climate-controlled and provides complimentary business-grade internet and Wi-Fi. Fee-based business services include a state-of-the-art printer, scanner, photocopier and faxing equipment. (Please call for availability of these services as our equipment is serviced from time to time.) Lamination services are also available.

A donation from the Dr. Robert R. Hesse family supported the renovations necessary to create this essential facility. Dr. Hesse served as Chautauqua Institution’s 14th president from 1977 until 1983. He is credited by many as being a catalyst to Chautauqua’s recent success.

For pricing and services outside of the summer assembly season, contact the Ticket Office at 716-357-6250.
