BlackMuse Experience
BlackMuse wanted student projects to end with more than a completed assignment. Students developed games, robots and creative ideas, then prepared them for a cross-state Youth Shark Tank Competition.
Students worked on collaboration, presentation skills, creative problem-solving and entrepreneurship before presenting their ideas in a Shark Tank-style showcase to families, partners and supporters.
The June 2026 event connected student teams from Washington and California and included a $500 student prize pool: $300 first, $150 second, $50 third.
