Play Me, I'm Yours: New York City 2010

"Play Me, I'm Yours" is a contempory artwork by British artist Luke Jerram, who has been touring his project globally since 2008.

Jerram has collaborated with the Mayor of New York City and has installed 60 pianos throughout the five boroughs. These pianos can be found in the citys public parks, plazas and along the streets.
The mission for the pianos... bring people who normally would pass each other by, together in the celebration of music. Members of the public are encouraged to play, sing or just listen.

The pianos are up now and shall run until the 5th of July. All the pianos were painted by local artists and will be donated to local schools and community groups.
