In 1993, John Wynn began his guitar teaching career in Duncanville, TX, where he hosted workshops and put on concerts for the local community.

Some things haven’t changed, as John has recently offered, through his Around the Square series, free concerts which benefit his Outreach through Music scholarship fund.   Outreach through Music grows out of a desire to connect more and more people to music in John’s current community of McKinney, where he opened his new studio in 2000. 

The Around the Square concerts not only expose the community of McKinney to nationally renowned musicians, but they also work towards a larger goal of the McKinney Guitar Studio which is to engage young players by surrounding them with many different opportunities to hear, play, and become personally involved with music, just as John was inspired in this way by his own family and community when he was growing up.

John has had some wonderful opportunities to play with and feature many talented musicians through the Around the Square series and other concerts he has organized in McKinney, Miguel Antonio, Lynn Adler, and Beth Wood, to name just a few.

John’s desire to share music with McKinney allows him to continually build connections with all types of artists in the community. 

Artist Annie Royer has been creating beautiful and spontaneous artwork during the Around the Square series.  Annie’s pieces have been so well received that she and John are now taking this live music-live art show on the road.

McKinney Guitar Studio

John opened McKinney Guitar Studio in January of 2000.   It is located on the square in Historic downtown McKinney inside The Ritz building, down the hallway on your right.  It is open Monday through Thursday from 10AM until early evening.

 

The family room atmosphere provides an ideal setting for lessons and the studio offers a fine selection of steel and nylon string acoustic guitars and accessories for purchase.
