“I have been a proud member of the Cowan Center Circle since the program was launched. I don’t just join because of the Gala or the parties. (Although, those are nice perks!) I join because money raised through the annual membership program helps continue the Cowan Center’s mission of bringing events from the world stage to Tyler. I hope you will browse the various membership levels and join at the one that’s right for you. We’d be proud to have you as part of “The Inner Circle!” But more than anything, your membership makes a huge impact on presenting the performing arts in East Texas.”
