As we look back on the recently-completed inaugural season of Chagrin Arts, we want to thank everyone who helped make the series a huge success. We especially want to thank our audiences for joining us for unforgettable lectures and performances, and the exceptional speakers, gifted musicians, and extraordinary dancers who came to Chagrin Falls and shared their talents with us. It was, by all accounts, a season to remember.

And now we are looking ahead to our first-ever benefit, Fire Up! for the Chagrin Foundation for Arts & Culture, which will be held on Saturday, May 31st, and our second season of Chautauqua-in-Chagrin, which will kick off on Tuesday, July 15. Please visit our Events listing for more information. We hope to see you often in the coming months.
