CREATING COMMUNITY
THROUGH MUSIC
A Message from the Director of the Music Academy
Dear friends,
​
St. Luke's Episcopal Church is truly fortunate to house a captivating and all-encompassing music program. The Music Academy at St. Luke's was founded in 2022 to offer excellence in music education.
​
Private lessons are available for string, wind, guitar, brass, voice, piano, organ, and harpsichord.
We also started a Community Children's Choir in the Fall of 2023 which has been a great success. We rehearse on Wednesday afternoons at 4:00pm.
​
We look forward to meeting you.
