Musicians United for Superior Education

Buffalo, New York

Cause Description:
Musicians United for Superior Education, Inc. (MUSE) has been bringing professional artists together with underserved Buffalo area children since 1990. MUSE was founded by artists, teachers, and parents committed to encouraging school kids to participate actively in music. MUSE programs get kids moving, drumming and dancing. These activities strengthen their bodies and, as part of the process, teach them about diverse cultures, thus fostering cultural vitality in our community. The primary objective is to help children to develop fundamental personal, social, leadership, academic, and artistic skills. MUSE teaching artists are among the regions top performers. Through their residencies, teaching artists share their professional experience and belief in the power of music and movement with the children. MUSE programming meets and exceeds the New York State Standards for music and dance education, and supports state standards in several other subjects across the curriculum.
