Welcome to the Chautauqua Association of the Disciples of Christ (CADC)!
Since 1874, we have been hosting guests in our two houses during the Chautauqua Institution summer season. Our year-round Graybiel House, completed in 2019, also offers a comfortable and welcoming venue for autumn, winter, and spring retreats, workshops, and meetings. To inquire about off-season rental of the Graybiel House, please use the Contact Form at the bottom of this page.
While we have a long association with the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), we are also leaders in Chautauqua’s Interfaith Community, providing affordable lodging and a welcoming community for people of all faiths and all ages.
​​​​​​
MISSION AND VISION
The Chautauqua Association of the Disciples of Christ offers much more than just affordable accommodations. We also strive to be a model for community in a rapidly changing world. We are proud of the diversity of peoples, faith traditions, and heritage that come to stay with us. We understand that global community starts with local community, and so we strive to provide a space where people can come together and share their stories, their faith journeys, and what matters to them. This is how we discover our common dreams, visions, and values. This is one way we can find our way forward in a rapidly changing world.
​
With the completion of our year-round Graybiel House in 2019, we are able to fulfill another part of our vision—to be a place where faith and community groups can gather during the off-season months for retreats, workshops, community building, and civil discourse. Chautauqua itself is a place for sharing ideas, learning, and growing. Our vision is to provide a comfortable and intimate space for groups to continue learning and growing together in the autumn, winter, and spring months. Chautauqua is a perfect place for dreams and visions of many people to come alive and begin to manifest!​
OUR HOUSES​
Our Disciples houses offer much more than just a place to stay. They represent a vision for the future. Disciples have been leaders in the interfaith movement at Chautauqua and welcoming guests from all faiths and races who are committed to making a difference in the world.. Global community starts with local community. Our houses provide spaces where diverse peoples come together and gives us the chance to play a greater role in creating a world that works for all.. The porches, kitchens, and dining rooms of both houses are places of great fellowship and spontaneous conversations after a lecture or concert. It is through our shared time together that we discover our common dreams, visions, and values so we find our way forward.
