Vacation Safely at Chautauqua

Chautauqua Institution develops policies, procedures and regulations to ensure the safety and security of our patrons and staff and to protect the Institution grounds, facilities and signature aesthetic environment. Institution staff members, in the conduct of their duties, work to educate the community on Institution policies and to request and assure compliance. Questions regarding Chautauqua Institution policies may be directed to Shannon Rozner, Senior Vice President – General Counsel & Corporate Secretary at srozner@chq.org.

Our Safety & Security Policies page offers information regarding what items can be brought into our venues, how we conduct security screenings, and our rules on the operation of motor vehicles and wheeled devices, docks and lakeside activity, alcohol, cannabis and firearms.
