| This was the image of Chautauqua that visitors saw as they approached on the steamboat. | The Athenaeum Hotel, on the Chautauqua grounds, where many wealthier visitors chose to stay during the season. |

| The Aula Christi (Hall of Christ), a dream of John Heyl Vincent, is used solely for the study of religion. | This 1887 map of the grounds shows that Chautauqua became a community in and of itself. The black area on the bottom left is the location of a fire earlier that year, which led to even more building and growth. |
