The Chesapeake Forum
Mission Statement
The Chesapeake Forum seeks to bring dynamic and diverse high-profile speakers to the Chesapeake community, thereby promoting education and learning among the general public.
About
In a world of diverse opinions, what does it take to bring a community together? A small group of ten citizens met over several months during the winter of 2018-19 to answer that question and form the framework of a non-profit organization.
Buy Tickets
The Chesapeake Forum is a subscription ticket program. A season subscription including tickets to three speakers will cost $125. The Forum reserves the right to substitute a speaker in the event that the announced speaker must cancel.
Venue
The Chesapeake Forum speaker programs will be held at the Chesapeake Conference Center. Located in the Greenbrier area, the facility features 39,000 square feet of versatile function space with room for up to 200 exhibits.
