The Muse
Inspiration is everywhere
The Muse is UPSA’s monthly program celebrating inspiration, the arts, & community.
Our intention is to gather as a new community of artists & art lovers as we discover & celebrate all the ways that inspiration, or as we like to fondly call her, The Muse, elevates our daily lives. Through our shared human experiences, creative expression & love of the arts, we can contemplate life’s biggest questions to find new meaning in the world around us.

Create meaning.
The Art Sanctuary is the first public event offered by The Muse, the United Palace of Spiritual Arts’ new monthly program celebrating inspiration, the arts & community and challenging participants to reimagine what’s possible in art & in life.
