50 Pianos. 5 Boroughs. #SFHPianos
What: This beloved public art installation brings brightly colored
pianos to the parks and public spaces of NYC’s five boroughs for anyone and
everyone to play. For two weeks in the summer, 50 pianos — each a unique
art piece created by a different artist or designer — will serve as gathering
places in their communities, hosting impromptu concerts by professionals and
amateurs alike in an open festival of music for all of New York City.
After the two-week public exhibition, Sing for Hope donates
the instruments to the under-resourced organizations we serve year round,
allowing the pianos to enrich lives for years to come. While their time on the
streets is a joyful event for our city, the Sing for Hope Pianos’ true impact
lies in their service as ongoing cornerstones of arts access for communities
and individuals in need.
When: June 5th-21st, 2015
Where: ALL NYC
