There is no better way to start children in music! Our comprehensive program lays the foundation for a lifetime of musical enjoyment and prepares students for any instrument. Our fully-equipped classrooms have everything necessary for our students to thrive including a keyboard for every child. Each learning-packed class is filled with fun and purposeful activities that accommodate age-specific learning styles, developmental stages and attention spans.The keyboard is ideal because it can sustain a tone without any special technique and allows for the study of all three elements of music: Melody, Harmony and Rhythm.
The Academy was founded over 30 years ago with the goal of creating the ultimate music education experience. With that in mind, no corners have been cut in any area of our program. Our no-compromises approach results in tremendous student progress and accomplishment. We have quite possibly created the greatest music education value on the planet.
We are always looking for great teachers, so feel free to apply even if we don't have an opening in your area. Here is some information about the Academy which should give you an idea of our philosophy and how we strive to best meet the needs of our students and teachers. The Art City Music Academy was founded over 30 years ago and has locations in Springville, Orem and American Fork.

Our family has been a part of the Art City Music Academy family for almost 20 years. And it is still the best music instruction I have seen anywhere in Utah. Their curriculum is phenomenal. Their teachers and staff are kind, friendly, helpful, and have become lifelong friends. I am so grateful for the incredible musical foundation they have given me and all of my children. We love ACMA!

I cannot say enough good words about Yvonne and Art City. My boys have learned SO much more than just how to read and play notes. They have a full, rounded knowledge of music theory, composition, and so much more. I am continually impressed by how much further along they are compared to others their age - and it's ALL thanks to this program. I love the one on one time I get to spend weekly with them as they (and I!) learn. Do not hesitate to start your family's music education at Art City

We have loved being a part of the Art City Music Academy! Our sons have enjoyed the classes and working with amazing teachers like Ms. Joanna, Ms. Jenn & Yvonne. They have been so kind and patient with their classes and each student. Since starting at the academy earlier this year we are amazed at the progress our boys have made & they've come to enjoy practicing on their own at home.
The teacher's enthusiasm, understanding & love of music shines as they teach our children. We just love the program and people at Art City Music Academy and recommend them to everyone!

I have had several kids go through the Art City Music Academy. It has been such a positive experience! My kids have learned music theory at the age of 5 that I didn't learn until my adult years. And it was fun as opposed to my nit and grit style that I endured through the old traditional ways. The leveled learning is done so perfectly that makes sense and is never overwhelming! Every teacher we've had has been extremely professional and knowledgeable. Truly incredible! I HIGHLY recommend!

My daughter attended Art City Music Academy for 3 years now. According to my husband (as he's the one who had learned music in his youth, not me :)), this is the best music school he ever came across. My daughter has learned a lot and plays piano much better than her dad. I am glad to discover Art City Music Academy. It's worth the money and time.

We have been a part of Art City Music Academy for several years and have loved it! My girls have received excellent training in piano. Chris and Yvonne are wonderful and have created a fantastic place of music and learning. From the basics to the advanced, if you want your child to enjoy music and progress this is the place!

The owner is one of the most unkind and egotistical persons I've ever had the misfortune of dealing with. Three of my children took piano lessons there for over a year and only had the occasional, baffling run-ins with him. If he subbed for their piano lessons, they would leave upset and hurt because he was so rude and mean to them. When he caused my youngest to cry at his recital (as well as others in my family when he kicked his grandpa, my father, out because he had his service dog with him), I tried to talk to him about it.
He was so full of pride, he didn't care about trying to make amends. He didn't care that service dogs are protected by law to attend their owners wherever they go. He kicked my gentle father out and the rest of us followed. He told me it was "his house" and that he doesn't have to let animals into it. We had enjoyed our teachers there, but I knew I couldn't risk exposing my children to him again. Children deserve our protection and shouldn't be exposed to adults like this. We are now much happier at a more professional piano studio with kinder owners.
