Music & Arts has announced their entry into West Virginia with the acquisition of both locations of local mainstay Kerr’s Music World. Now open under the Music & Arts name, both locations will continue to uphold the legacy of Kerr’s Music World in the community while also providing additional services to long-time customers and new students.

The new locations offer rentals, repairs and sales of a wide assortment of band and orchestral instruments plus piano, guitar, drums, and more. The Charleston location also features a robust private and group lesson program. Both locations serve school music programs throughout nearby counties as well. The locations are:
