"Play Me, I'm Yours"

"Play Me, I'm Yours" is an interactive musical art installation by British artist Luke Jerram
to celebrate the combined 150 years of operation of three Cincinnati Public Radio stations. Jerram's street corner pianopalooza will begin Saturday, August 7, with the installation of 35 painted pianos throughout the area.

Some Locations of the pianos

Carl Lindner YMCAMason/Deerfield Graeter's

Cincinnati Zoo Music Hall
Jungle Jim's International MarketSharonville Arts Center

After the initial installation of the 35 pianos, seven of them will be relocated in late August. When the installation ends September 17, the pianos will be donated to community arts centers and schools.
Cincinnati was to have been the first American venue to host "Play Me, I'm Yours," but New York nabbed the honor first, with 60 pianos gracing the Big Apple. The pianos were installed in June and stayed out through July 5.

That is so FUN! Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I'm going to see how many of them we can hit! I love doing this kind of thing with the kids. This summer we officially finished our quest to touch all the Great Lakes, so this will be a fun new project for a few weeks!
