TAKE 5: THE SERIES
Founders Season | July 2025 – June 2026
An Invitation to Join the Wildhorse Fifty
A private cultural society hosted at Wildhorse Cinema & Arts, Steamboat Spring

Where influence meets artistry, and every evening is unforgettable.

You are invited to join the Wildhorse Fifty—a founding circle of just 50 visionary patrons shaping the next chapter of arts and culture in Steamboat Springs.

Launching in July 2025, Take 5: The Series is an intimate collection of ten genre-defying performances—curated for those who appreciate world-class artistry, thoughtful hospitality, and the rare magic of connection.

Held in the cabaret-style Take 5 performance salon at Wildhorse Cinema & Arts, these evenings will blend musical mastery with chef-curated meals, premium service, and vibrant company. Think candlelit jazz, operatic surprises, and boundary-pushing collaborations—each experience crafted to stir the soul.

The complete artist lineup of 10 acts will be shared with founding members July 1. Select previews may be revealed privately to confirmed members in advance. Performances include:  Soul Rebels (confirmed)  Opera Cowgirls (confirmed) and Paul Chou (working on dates).
