about us
we're revitalizing portland through its creative communities
The Muse is a platform for Portland's creative communities to come together, create opportunity, and lead the city into being a world-class destination for the arts and entrepreneurship.
We're doing this through a series of large-scale projects designed to help Portland's talented creative residents create more things in the Rose City.
The core of The Muse is it's community. Here, creatives can learn about and participate in Muse projects, as well as access resources to accelerate their own creative works.
Our main project focus is a creative campus for the arts and entrepreneurship. A place where creatives and the public converge. A visitor destination powering Portland's creative economy.
