ABOUT THE SHOP

Annapolis Bows & Violins is owned and operated by Rebecca Hannigan. Rebecca is an Annapolis native who graduated from MNSE Tech at the top of her class for String Instrument Repair. She has been working in music and violin shops over half her lifetime, including in Nashville, Chicago, and Maryland. She continued her luthier education by attending advanced bow repair/restoration and bowmaking workshops. Recognizing the need for a resource for string players in the Annapolis area, Rebecca opened Annapolis Bows & Violins on State Circle in Downtown Annapolis in 2017 and moved to 177 Defense Highway in 2020.​​
