Victorian Chautauqua and Kids Festival

The Howard Steamboat Museum is a local non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the history of the famous three-generation steamboat building Howard family, their legacy, and the lore of the Great Steamboat Era.  

The Chatauqua marks a return to our past and will be a truly family friendly celebration. We are recruiting local artisans to host booths across our 3+acre campus, alongside live music, a variety of food offerings, and a dedicated children's play area. The museum will also be open throughout the event.  

We are thrilled to bring this beloved family event back to our campus after an 11-year absence and share the beauty of our grounds with our community!
