Welcome!

We’re excited to have you visit our beautiful campus in the heart of historic Mount Vernon!

We encourage you to schedule a tour three days in advance, however, you are welcome to visit the Peabody Institute at other times with our self-guided tour brochure available from the admissions office. 

Prospective students can also attend many of our concerts & events, most of which are free and open to the public.

Sample Lessons

If you would like to meet with a particular teacher during your visit, we ask you arrange those meetings directly with the faculty before setting up a tour or in advance of your campus visit. Please email us at [email protected] and we will forward your inquiry along to the faculty of your choice.

When to Visit

Summer Tours

Peabody is open during the summer and visitors can tour our halls, facilities, and 19th century architecture. Many faculty and students are not on campus during the summer, so this would be a nice, quiet time to see a behind-the-scenes tour of our campus. The last day of summer tours will be Friday, August 16th. Fall Semester visit registration will be available in September.

During the School Year

If you want a sense of how the school feels on a day-to-day basis, the school year is a great time to visit. You can hear music coming from every practice room, studio, and hall. Because of our small class size, tours will not visit classrooms or private lessons, but you will have the opportunity to visit large ensemble rehearsals and meet students and faculty across the campus.
