Inspired by music's remarkable ability to bring people together, The Music Settlement, (TMS) is a community music school in Cleveland, Ohio. TMS was founded in 1912 by Almeda Adams, as part of the Settlement Movement. She set out to connect immigrants new to our city with people from all walks of life to celebrate and share experiences through our Center for Music, Center for Early Childhood and Center for Music Therapy and the BOP STOP performance venue. Delighted to be a part of Cleveland's robust arts and culture community, we take great pride in inspiring the promise and potential within each of the individuals we serve.
