Get to Know Girl Scouts at our Info Night!Meet us on Zoom to get all your questions answered!
Right now, Girl Scouts are meeting furry friends at their local animal shelters, giggling past lights-out at sleepovers, and learning how their favorite roller coasters work. Above all else, they’re having a blast—because they know bringing the fun is all about being their true selves, trying new things, and cheering each other on. Get ready to join the crew and bring a bit more happy to your life!
Girl Scouts empowers girls to build confidence, character, and leadership through hands-on programs in life skills, outdoor adventure, entrepreneurship, and STEM. Girls also have opportunities for community service, faith-based growth through the P.R.A.Y. program, and experiences that prepare them to make a positive impact in the world.

The Center Presents Silversun Pickups on their Tenterhook Tour. A sense of urgency drives Silversun Pickups. The GRAMMY® Award-nominated Los Angeles quartet creates and performs with both eloquence and intensity. They throw caution to the wind, but they do so with panache. Guitars may restlessly roar and rumble, only to be reined in by the spell of a saccharine melody or a honeyed hook. This push-and-pull has catapulted the group out of a crowded, competitive local scene and into the wide-open space of some of the world’s biggest stages, buoyed by Top 10 albums, Platinum success, and tastemaker acclaim.
Pianist Eric Huebner has drawn worldwide acclaim for his performances since making his debut with the Los Angeles Philharmonic at age 17.

Huebner has appeared as soloist in concertos by Carter, Ligeti and Messiaen and in recital throughout the United States, Germany and Japan. From 2001 through 2012, Huebner was a member of Antares, a quartet comprised of clarinet, violin, cello and piano. First prize winners of the 2002 Concert Artists Guild International Competition, Antares appeared regularly in major chamber music venues throughout the United States and worked closely with many composers on the commissioning of new works for its combination.

Fresh Fruit! has entered their brooding post-apocalyptic era. The whimsical nature of their past releases didn't do justice to their increasing fears and insecurities regarding the future of the human race. Their declining confidence in the current trajectory of the world has led them to ask bigger questions and approach deeper topics within their music. With their new music, Fresh Fruit! looks into the future, but also reminisces on the past as they attempt to navigate the world around them. Their current sound begs the question: what if Marvin Gaye had played more guitar and made music in the midst of a nuclear fallout?
Laramie’s own, Phryne, will be opening up the night for Fresh Fruit! to finish the final installment of the Laradise Music Showcase.
Come out and support local artists!
