An immersive arts learning experience, Muse’s institute brings acclaimed creative minds from across the globe to the Miami Valley to spend several days in July exploring and co-creating with teachers. Teachers learn inventive arts-based strategies for cultivating and assessing higher-order thinking skills and utilize these new techniques in their schools. The institute is free for Muse schools and prospective Muse school teachers and administrators. Teacher attendees can earn 28 seat hours and/or three graduate credits.

Jazz calls us to engage with our national identity. It gives us expression to the beauty of democracy and of personal freedom and of choosing to embrace humanity of all types of people. It really is what American democracy is supposed to be.
