The Music Settlement

Founded by Almeda Adams in 1912 as part of the Settlement movement to welcome new immigrants to Cleveland through the common language of music, The Music Settlement provides early childhood education, music instruction, and music therapy to people of all ages and levels of experience in Northeast Ohio.

Our venues include a campus at University Circle, Ohio City's BOP STOP at The Music Settlement live-music and education venue, and a new campus on Detroit Ave. between W. 25th and W. 28th in Ohio City.
