Taylor Swift Opens Her Own Music School

Taylor Swift was on hand over the weekend to open the new education centre she donated to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville, Tennessee.

 

The I Knew You Were Trouble Singer cut the ribbon on the Taylor Swift Education Center on Saturday (October 12), a facility which reportedly cost her US$4 million.

 

According to the Associated Press, Taylor showed reporters and local high school students around the new classroom and exhibit space.

 

The 23-year-old said in an interview after the ceremony: "I'm really excited about this music education center and the fact that right now they have three different classes going on today." 

 

She continued: "It's really exciting that we can be here on a day when they're not only unveiling it, but they're starting to actively use it today."

 

T-Swizzle even hinted that she might get personally involved in the classes taught at the facility, adding: "We've been talking about different programs I can be involved in.

 

"I hate to call it a lecture because that sounds like I'm yelling at people, but we could do a Q&A talking to students here and a songwriters discussion would be really fun to have at some point."

 

Taylor also picked up her record sixth songwriter-artist of the year award from Nashville Songwriters Association International the following day.
