From Walker West Music Academy: Located in Saint Paul, MN, at 650 Marshall Ave., Walker West Music Academy is a vibrant out-of-school time music school for students aged 5 to adult.
Thought to be the oldest community music school in the nation, founded by African American musicians, we offer affordable, accessible, high-quality instruction in all genres of music, including classical, with a special emphasis on jazz, gospel, and improvisational music.
More than just a school, we are a caring community where professional musicians inspire a lifelong love of music. (Image Credit: Walker West Music Academy)
Celebrate Extraordinary Indie Local Businesses! People often overlook the positive impacts of independent, locally owned (Indie Local) businesses. The local community that an Indie Local serves may understand these impacts, but those located further away may need to be made aware of these success stories. In future posts, with your help, we will feature a few of the top Indie Locals in the nation.
You can nominate your favorite Indie Local by emailing us today.
