Terry Carlin
Terry Carlin, a native of Cleveland, earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Gonzaga University in Spokane Washington. Soon after graduation, Terry set out to combine her appreciation of great art with her passion for music by pursuing the art of violin making. She enrolled at The Violin Making School of America, a four year program dedicated to the art of building bowed stringed instruments, where she earned the degree of "Luthier". Terry is also an accredited member of the Appraisers Association of America.
Following graduation, Terry served her apprenticeship for several years before returning to Cleveland to open her own shop for sales and service of violin-family instruments. As her business increased, she moved from the Old Arcade in downtown Cleveland to the historic Little Italy neighborhood which has become a destination for artists, fine restaurants, and great music. Her shop is now located in the Murray Hill Galleries building near both Severance Hall, home of the Cleveland Orchestra, the equally famous Cleveland Institute of Music, and Case Western University.
