SUMMER ARTS SHOWCASE: INSTALLATION
Musetrap
with Sara Flannery Murphy
Guided Workshop: June 26, 5PM
Open Installation hours and dates to be announced soon.
Center for the Arts at Kayenta
This interactive installation invites participants to tap into the collective force of human creativity by setting a trap for our muses. Experience this installation two ways: Join creator Sara Flannery Murphy on June 26 for a guided workshop with hands-on exercises and a lecture. Or, visit this “thrift store of ideas” during the open installation period, following your own instincts.
Either way, come with your creative blocks and attempt to appease The Muse!

This event is part of the Kayenta Summer Arts Showcase, an all-month event featuring exceptional local artists and the premiere of brand-new creative work, across several disciplines. Join us this June to celebrate and experience local art, fun, and community.
We’re introducing tiered ticket pricing for this program. The Kayenta Summer Arts Showcase is about welcoming audiences to see the work of artists within their own community. We’re committed to making our events as accessible as possible, and believe this tiered structure will help remove financial barriers, while also presenting quality events and compensating artists fairly for their work. The pricing tiers are as follows:
$10 – Pay What You Can
$20 – Suggested Ticket Price
$30 – Support This Program
