The Muse Group is a social enterprise that aims to create economic and professional development opportunities for young low income women in Côte d’Ivoire, West Africa. Inspired by the Nine Muses of Greek Mythology—goddesses of inspiration for the arts, literature and science — we promote financial self-sufficiency by training young women in jewelry making and coaching them for performance and career development. We create imaginative, multi-functional jewelry that is empowering a new generation of African women artisans as agents of social and economic change. (less)
