Muse Art and Design is two years old this month!

Thanks to all of you who have made our first two years possible and enjoyable through your patronage and support!

Celebrate our second anniversary with us at this month's artist reception!

In addition to honoring artists Shannon Mayorga and Ron Rogers, whose works are on display through November, we'll have live music, (by Ron Rogers and friends!) wine, and refreshments.

See you there!

Lyra Encaustic Crayons: These highly pigmented, smooth-melting beeswax encaustic colors have been so popular in sets that we now carry them in 34 individual colors, including white, black, transparent, and 8 metallic colors.

Stabilo 88 Pens: This German fineline marker has achieved cult status among many artists and designers! The 0.4mm pens come in 25 vivid colors. Their long-lasting metal-encased tips won't dry out quickly, even with the cap off. Reliable, durable, pens for under a dollar!

Hand-Made Ribbon-Bound Journals: Beautiful, one-of-a-kind journals with custom covers and color-coordinated Japanese ribbon binding. Made just for Muse by local artisan Corey Cowles

Mark your December calendar to visit Common Grounds Coffee House across the street from Muse at 4321 SE Hawthorne. Portland artist Ryan Dobrowski will exhibit 300 paintings in oil and encaustic, with 25% of all sales used to purchase art supplies for Schoolhouse Supplies.

Schoolhouse Supplies is a nonprofit organization that operates a store where teachers can get supplies free of charge for their classrooms. Muse will be contributing additional items to accompany Ryan's generous donation.

Opening Reception Saturday, December 2, 7:00- 9:00p.m.
