Sponsorship Drive
With a packed weekend schedule, the Victorian Chautauqua is more than a great summer festival. It’s an open house event celebrating a long tradition of educational and cultural programming that first put Mountain Lake Park on the map over a century ago. Whether it’s historical portrayals, lectures, live music, browsing vendors, or riding in a Ford Model T, attendees experience a lively and memorable day amidst the charm of days gone by.
The weekend lineup is fully funded by grants and private donations of all sizes, allowing free attendance for anyone. Thanks to a team of dedicated volunteers, no staffing fees are needed to build and present the festival. Destination tourism is on the rise, with small towns becoming a growing interest among travelers. Increasing awareness of Mountain Lake Park not only builds community pride but also helps local businesses and bolsters the general economy. The entire event planning committee thanks you for your kind consideration and support!
