The movie Inside Out asked us: "Do you ever look at someone and wonder what is going on inside their head?" And we have the musical answer! Music provides a wonderful medium for the expression of feelings, with or without words. Through this camp participants will explore the connections between music and emotions through songwriting, improvising, movement, and reflection. Participants will also explore ways they can use music to connect with, express, and regulate their emotions.

Please note that pre-registration is required.

BREAKING NEWS! WE'RE MOVING!

Over the past 12 years, Heartstring Melodies has grown and expanded to reach more participants and communities in Toledo! With our current participants’ and community partners needs in mind, along with our hopes for the future of the business, it’s time for a change in scenery! We have been searching for the last six months for the space that we could call home for years to come. That search officially came to a close today when Amy (Founder, Director of Business Operations) signed the lease!

Our New Location
Our new Toledo office is located at 4027 N Holland Sylvania Rd. The new space features bright, natural lighting, spacious treatment spaces for individual and group sessions alike, a welcoming waiting area, and recently completed repairs to the building. We’re excited for this new chapter!

Moving Dates
We will begin the moving process on Thursday, July 2nd and continue through the weekend. Want to get a look at the space before sessions resume next week? Join us for an “open house” on Sunday, July 5th from 11 am to 1 pm!

Contact Information
Our phone numbers and email addresses will remain the same. However, please update your records with our new address.

Stay Tuned for More Updates
We will be sharing updates and photos of our new office all weekend. Stay tuned for a behind-the-scenes look at our new space!

We understand that an office move may raise some questions or create unexpected changes to routines. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. We are happy to collaborate in making this transition as smooth as possible.

Thank you for your continued support. We're excited about this new chapter in our company's story and look forward to welcoming you to our new Toledo office soon!
