Choose a member or nonmember level ticket. ONLY Members of Contemporary Art Center may purchase member level tickets. A member purchasing tickets on behalf of a nonmember must choose a nonmember ticket. A ‘Friend’ membership is for an individual, entitling only that individual to receive a discount. A ‘Family’ membership would entitle the individual and members of their household (defined as a spouse and any children under 16 years of age living at the same address) to receive a discount. Therefore, buying member level tickets for friends is not included, even if you obtain a membership.


Water and pop for $1.00 is offered at the bar. Attendees may bring their own food and drink or bring in food and drink from the Rhythm Kitchen.

About the Band:

Since 2009, Galactic Cowboy Orchestra has created intensely energetic Jazz/Rock/Bluegrass Fusion characterized by sophisticated harmonic, dynamic and technical complexity based on forms derived from classical and jazz music and requiring performers of considerable training and skill. It sounds serious, but when paired with four fun-loving musicians (John Wright – Bass/Vocals, Lisi Wright – Violin/Vocals, Dan Neale – Guitars/Vocals, Nathan Fryett – Drums/Percussion) who don't take themselves too seriously, a unique bit of magic is the result. The band writes and performs music that has been recorded in numerous fine albums. For fans of King Crimson, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Dixie Dregs and Bela Fleck & the Flecktones.
