Our Mission and Values
Our Mission and Values. At the Little 5 Points Music Center, we're serious about the power of music, and we believe playing music makes life better. We're here because music is much more than a commodity to be packaged, sold and consumed. Music is something you do, and we believe anybody can do it.

Our Goal is Your Music
At the Center, we nurture your creativity and we help you develop genuine musical literacy, whether you are young or old, a beginner or nearly a professional, a classical, jazz, experimental, or rock inspired musician.  Our diverse faculty is prepared to support your efforts, no matter your aesthetic manifesto, and if we aren't already equipped with staff to meet your needs, we will work with you to find someone who is.

More than just an educational service, the L5P Music Center offers a forum for cultural exchange with the aim of enriching lives.
