The Muse Performance Space was created by musicians and artists for musicians and artists. We believe that providing a space for music and art creates community, helps to keep the arts alive, and is fun and fulfilling. Right here in Lafayette, Colorado, your Muse welcomes musicians and bands from all over Colorado and beyond, hosts art shows curated by our amazing artist-in-residence Molly McCrosson, and creates educational opportunities for young and old alike through our jazz and free jam sessions and our cooperation with local schools as well as the Colorado Conservatory for Jazz Arts. When co-founders Pete Lewis and Clare Church first conceived of the Muse, they asked the question, “What do musicians want in a performance space?” The answer is a great piano, excellent sound system and microphones, house drum kit and house bass amp, and a fair split of show proceeds, all in a warm and beautiful space that is just the right size to connect with audiences without feeling cramped.
