Colorado Art Rock Society (C.A.R.S.) Is a group of fans of Progressive Rock, Art Rock and other forms of innovative and creative music. They hold monthly meetings, typically on the last Saturday of each month at 6:00pm at the Breckenridge Brewery.

HISTORY

C.A.R.S was formed in 1999 when Phil Satterley had a chance meeting with two fellow Coloradoians at the Bajaprog '99 Festival in Mexicali Mexico. The first meeting was on March 27,1999 when C.A.R.S. met at the Margarita Bay Club in Denver Colorado with just 4 members. As membership grew meeting space became limited and was moved to it's current location, the Breckenridge Brew Pub. Meetings include Progressive Rock listening sessions, CD swapping, lectures and video nights. Other events included hosting concerts including the Flower Kings on March 11, 2006 and again on October 19, 2006 and spreading the word about local concerts and holding an annual "Colorado Prog Jam" which consists of C.A.R.S members performing various Progressive Rock compositions. The event was first held on April 26, 2003.
