Our ongoing Chautauqua Learning Series is based on the Chautauqua movement
which spread throughout the rural United States in the late 19th and early
20th centuries. It provided educational lectures and entertainment for
average Americans before the advent of mass media like radio and television.
The Texas Frontier Heritage and Cultural Center™ is proud to continue the
spirit of that tradition in the unique setting of the Buffalo Gap Historic
Village.
The Grady McWhiney Research Foundation would like to say Thank You to our
honored suporters for helping us make the Chautauqua experience available
to our community: The Dian Graves Owen Foundation, Judd White ~ CBS Insurance
LLP, and Red Steagall. |
