MORE ABOUT MUSIC & ARTS
Owned and operated by the same family since our founding, the first Music & Arts location began in a Bethesda, Maryland home back in 1952. Over 65 years and 150 locations later, we’ve grown by leaps and bounds over the past six decades, but we’ve never lost sight of music’s incredible impact on a personal level. Our remarkable story of success has everything to do with the thousands of unshakable relationships we’ve formed with music educators, students, parents and professional musicians over the years in the many communities we serve. So for all your musical needs, you can always rely on us. Come visit our Gainesville location today!
