Cascadia’s concert series is a unique opportunity to enjoy leading classical performers up close, in our intimate gallery setting surrounded by beautiful art from the Northwest – the way chamber music was meant to be experienced!  

Your ticket includes admission to all the museum galleries, so make sure you come early to see our current exhibits.  Our concerts are about one-hour in length starting at 6 PM, leaving you time to dine out after — altogether a perfect evening. 

Seating is limited and these concerts often sell-out, so please we suggest reserving your seats well in advance.
