The Academy of Music and Art, Inc.™
We are open!
The Academy has reopened for lessons and classes. In the video below I walk you through the school to show you the changes that we have made to keep our students, staff and families as safe as possible. We are continually making improvements, working with the building management and our neighbors, making health and safety our number one priority.
We will continue to offer online lessons and classes indefinitely. Lessons and classes can be in person or online, the choice is yours.

Here’s a quick summary of the video:
Health and safety are the most things.
1) Please do not come to lessons or classes if you’re experiencing flu like symptoms.
2) Everyone entering the building will be required to wear a mask.
3) There is a hands-free temperature check station. Upon entering the building you may be asked to take your temperature.
4) The east stairway is one way going up. The west stairway is one way going down.
5) We ask that you only come into the building for pick up and drop off. If you need to see a member of our office staff please call to schedule an appointment so that we can avoid crowding in our lobby and front desk area.
6) Our main hallway is one way. Just follow the purple arrows. Try to stay 6 feet apart. How far is 6 feet? Look down: 3 carpet squares are 6 feet.
7) We have added a third waiting room.
8) Reduced capacity:
We have reduced the capacity of our main waiting rooms to 4 people and 2 people. We have reduced capacity of group piano room to 3 students. Our piano rooms now have 2 keyboards. While seated at the keyboard you can be 6 feet apart from your teacher. We have changed the lay out of our drum room so that the student and the teacher are 6 feet apart. Art classes are limited to 4 students. The maximum camp class size is 6 students.
9) After your lesson you exit through the double doors near the dance department.
