Design Schools & Community Art Associations
Who we need:
Post-secondary design, art, and public installation programs
Local community art groups and collectives
Why it matters: This initiative offers a unique opportunity to merge creativity with civic engagement. For schools, it can be formally integrated into a design or public art curriculum as a collaborative studio project or capstone. For community groups, it’s a way to express local identity and engage residents through public art.
Participants can:
- Incorporate the project into coursework or structured programs, providing students or members with hands-on, real-world experience in collaborative public art
- Showcase their work publicly in parks, plazas, and urban spaces.
- Create shared artworks that express meaningful cultural, social, or emotional themes.
- Gain visibility for students and schools.
- Contribute lasting value to public space through interactive, accessible art.
Each piano becomes a canvas for storytelling, expression, and connection. Whether you’re a design school building curriculum around public engagement, or a community arts organization aiming to inspire dialogue, your voice belongs in the streets.
