Each summer, the denominational houses of the Chautauqua Institution host numerous visitors to the grounds. The United Methodist House is currently seeking applicants to serve as Hosts for the House, beginning in the summer of 2026.

If you feel you have a gift for organisation, administration, and hospitality, we encourage you to consider applying by filling out the application form and submitting the required materials by December 31st.

Couples are strongly encouraged to apply, rather than individuals, as the job requires the time and energy of two people. Applicants should be able to commit to at least three summers of hosting (2026–2028), and will ideally have 1–2 weeks available in the summer of 2025 for training with the outgoing Hosts.

If you have any questions about the application, you can email Rev. Rachel.
