As the "Hub of Southeast Kansas,"
Chanute enjoys some of the finest recreational, cultural and business
opportunities n the state.
Located in the beautifully
renovated Santa Fe train depot is the Public Library and the Martin and Osa
Johnson Safari Museum which tells the adventurous life stories of two wildlife
filmmakers, photographers and authors. The Chanute Art Gallery is a unique
cultural treasure not found in many small towns. In addition to an old-fashioned
soda fountain and wonderful shopping, historic downtown Chanute now boasts
the Chanute-Wright Brothers Memorial. Annual festivals include Chanute's Mexican
Fiesta and Artist Alley. Chanute maintains 6 parks covering 300 acres offering a
40-acre lake for boating and fishing, a 3.11-mile hike/bike trail, a golf
course, skate park, ball diamonds, playground equipment, and pavilions for
gatherings.
