Great for budding musicians by peterbehle_citysearch via Citysearch on 3/15/2005
The Old Town School offers a great variety of classes. The guitar classes for kids are especially popular -- we've found the teachers to be incredibly patient and understanding. Be aware, though, the weekend classes fill up in no time, so…
