“The Art of Robert Villamagna” Exhibition – June 23-July 18

“The Art of Robert Villamagna” exhibition runs June 23-July 18. Opening reception June 23, 3-5pm. Robert Villamagna grew up in the Rust Belt in Ohio and started making art as a young child with materials he found in his home. He now passionately works with colorful found materials, especially items that have language, show use and are rusted. These discarded metal items breathe life into his colorful sculptures and two-dimensional wall pieces. A strong sense of hidden messages is paramount in his work. This exhibition is generously sponsored by the Friends of CVA. Curated by Judy Barie.

“Holding Space: Woven Works” exhibition runs June 23-August 4. This exhibition is a nuanced exploration into woven structures including jacquard weaving, pulled warp tapestry, and basketry.

Miller Cottage Tours

Miller Cottage Tours: Join Clara Miller for a 30-minute tour of the first floor of the historic Miller-Edison Cottage. The cottage was built in 1875 for the co-founder and first president of the Institution, Lewis Miller, an inventor and businessman from Akron, Ohio. President Ulysses S. Grant visited the property that year. Miller’s daughter, Mina, also spent summers at the cottage with her husband, Thomas Alva Edison. The Swiss-style structure on lakefront Miller Park is an excellent example of “stick style” architecture popular in the late 1800s. Considered one of the earliest prefabricated structures in America with components produced and assembled in Akron, the cottage has gone through numerous renovations, expansions and systems upgrades over the past 130 years.

The Lewis Miller Cottage was designated a National Historic Landmark on July 4, 1966.

About Your Guide:
Clara Miller is a cultural landscape historian and lifelong Chautauquan. She graduated in 2020 from the Savannah College of Art and Design with a bachelor’s degree in Architectural History. Clara moved to Scotland in 2021 to complete a master’s program in Gender History at the University of Glasgow. While pursuing her degree, Clara worked for the National Trust for Scotland, designing and giving tours in historic house museums.

Clara’s interest in the intersections of history, landscape, and gendered experience is linked to her early exposure to Chautauqua’s richly historical community and grounds. Her master’s research centered on the intertwined history of hegemonic femininity and landscape gardens.

Chautauqua Theater Company presents Birthday Candles (Sensory-Friendly Performance)

This performance of Birthday Candles has been selected to be sensory-friendly. To better accommodate neurodiverse audiences, patrons should expect dimmed house lights, creating a more calming environment with softer and less intense lighting and reduced sound levels to minimize sudden loud noises or jarring sounds. Audience members are permitted to move around, vocalize, or express themselves as needed. This can include the freedom to leave and re-enter the performance space without judgment.

By Noah Haidle

Ernestine Ashworth contemplates her cosmic insignificance on her 17th birthday, a feeling that follows her through the swift passage of time. In the blink of an eye, she reaches her 18th birthday, hurtles toward her 41st, accelerates into her 70th, and glides into her 101st. Birthday Candles is a heartfelt and humorous story that guides the audience through the significant, challenging, and remarkable moments as time inexorably marches on. One ordinary woman’s life is measured by the simple tradition of baking a birthday cake.

Originally developed as a New Play Workshop during the 2017 season and then performed around the country, Chautauqua will finally mount its own full production of Birthday Candles. What a fitting way to open CTC’s mainstage season and celebrate Chautauqua Institution’s 150th birthday!

This production may not be suitable for youth under 8.

This performance is made possible in part by The Arnold and Jill Bellowe Fund for Theater and by The Nancy E. Brewer Fund for Theater.

Acclaimed 2022 Van Cliburn International Competition silver medalist joins the Chautauqua faculty for the first time.

Accolades ensued—Musical America named her Young Artist of the Month in July 2022 and Pianist magazine featured her on the cover in June 2023—and invitations from well-respected institutions followed. Recent and upcoming engagements are highlighted by debut recitals for Washington Performing Arts at the Kennedy Center, Wiener Konzerthaus, and the Bravo! Vail and Grand Teton Music Festivals; debut concerts at Tonhalle Zurich and Stadtcasino Basel, filling in for Daniel Barenboim in recital; and collaborations with the Taipei and Lithuanian Symphony Orchestras, conductors Gábor Takács-Nagy, Eliahu Inbal, and Miguel Harth-Bedoya, and pianists Wu Han and Dmytro Choni. Anna’s newest album—a deeply personal project of lullabies spanning from John Field and Liszt to Dutilleux and Weinberg—is released in September 2023, and she is set to record a duo disc with her husband and frequent collaborator, pianist Lukas Geniušas, for release next year on the Alpha label. She joins the roster of the Bowers Program of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in 2024–2027.

Also an enthusiastic teacher, she actively teaches masterclasses and adjudicates competitions, and served as assistant professor at the Moscow Conservatory until 2022.

Opera Conservatory: Alcina

Alcina by G.F. Handel
July 16 & 18, 2024
Marlena Malas, Director*
John Matsumoto Giampietro, Associate Director

Welcome to the island of illusions. Peer beyond the palms to discover the beautiful Alcina, a sorceress skilled in the art of seduction. Her passion burns red hot–until she tires of her conquests and turns them into wild beasts or stone. When dashing knight Ruggiero succumbs to this femme fatale’s dangerous charms, his fiancée Bradamante takes on a daring disguise to free her betrothed and break the curse. But is Alcina finally falling for the man of her dreams?

The Chautauqua Opera Conservatory is an intensive educational program that seeks to offer the highest caliber of training for the young singer, 18 and older. Under the leadership of Marlena Kleinman Malas*, a select group of 20 singers study, coach and perform in an idyllic setting on the grounds of the Chautauqua Institution.

*The Chautauqua Community joins the world in mourning the passing of Marlena Malas on December 4, 2023. We honor her more than four decades of leadership and service to our Opera Conservatory.
