MUSE INFO AND FALL PROGRAMMING

What is MUSEartspace?
MUSE is a multi-purpose artspace that holds a gallery, studio, lounge and retail space. We promote emerging artists and carry the work of PEI artists, writers, and craftspeople. We also run programming for all ages and skill sets. A calendar of our programs and events is available at www.museartspace.com. Renee Laprise is the owner and operator.
