Pianos on Parade

Twenty hand painted pianos in locations around St. Paul are waiting for spontaneous concerts. The performer is you and you can play them all day until 10pm. I have found only three of them. This one sits outside of the Ordway across from Rice Park. Yes, it is somewhat sheltered from potential rain. Two more in downtown are located just outside the Travelers Building and the Landmark Center. But where are the other seventeen? Another piano admirer asked me that question in downtown. He wanted to take his son to each and every one of them to play. I guess the answer to that is that it is like the winter medallion hunt but without the clues. You have until the end of July to find them so good luck. The Pianos on Parade is a project of Keys 4/4 Kids an organization which restores old pianos that they receive as donations from folks like YOU!!!
