The Chautauqua Auditorium in Shelbyville is a landmark of the city and after some renovations, it has become a perfect place to hold weddings, receptions, pageants, and concerts. Built in 1903 the building continues to be a beacon of community engagement.
Today, August 25th, Scott Wattles and The Blue Suede Crew will be performing at 7:00 PM at the Shelbyville Chautauqua Auditorium. Tickets are $20 at the door, located at Forest Park, East North 9th Street in Shelbyville.
Poppet Maulding is on the committee for the Chautauqua Auditorium and specializes in public relations and booking. She says Scott Waddles is well known in the community and Maulding notes that this show brings many people into the town to see the various attractions. She notes that if the music is not for you, come out and enjoy the vendors.
Maulding says there is plenty of room to dance during the show. Handicap parking is already set up at the Chautauqua but Maulding notes that attendees can be dropped off at the door.
The Chautauqua building has seen many different generations and has been used for various purposes for the community. Maulding says that it was the “internet of the day” before people had a place online to go for information.
The Shelbyville community is proud of the Chautauqua Auditorium especially now with the new renovations. A metal roof has been added along with other minor touch-ups that have created a perfect place for large events.
Poppet Maulding appeared as a guest on the WTIM Morning Show in Shelbyville.
