MUSE Awards Recognize Six Local “Muses”

December 26, 2018 by Post

MUSE will celebrate artistic inspiration on Friday, February 8, 2019 at the Museum of Fine Arts, St. Petersburg at 7:00 p.m.  The sixth annual benefit for the arts will recognize the breadth and beauty of art and culture in our City of the Arts, and pay tribute to those that continue to inspire and guide St. Petersburg to its standing as an international arts destination.  Proceeds will benefit artists, arts education, and arts & cultural organizations through our Arts Alliance programs and services.

 

No stiff tuxes, no boring speeches; no rubber chicken dinner.  MUSE is the art community’s annual pARTy to uniquely celebrate St. Petersburg.   Creative pARTy attire suggested – this is a night to revel in our creative spirits!  Events include interactive digital art, pop-up performances, artful by-the-bite dinner courses, and the MUSEAwards, which add up to a truly different type of benefit in the Museum’s conservatory celebrating our artful community.
