manifesto

Clio, Euterpe, Thalia, Melpomeni, Terpsichore, Erato, Polymnia, Urania, Calliope—the nine muses, the first guardians of the arts.

We created MUSE to be a place of inspiration, share narratives, take pause, and feel the full force of human connection. Over an intimate dinner spread, it is here that the magic of cross-disciplinary innovation comes alive.

The builders unapologetically carving out space. The directors producing out of a dorm-setup. The dancers owning their form. The founders disrupting legacy. The interdicinplinaries of all mediums and capacities. Real people, real human stories.

And, we found them. Extending (and expanding) into our personal networks, our founding cohort assembled 45 of USC’s boldest voices.
