What a joy to stop by the upright piano located at the Belgian-blocked plaza at Washington Park and Myrtle and catch neighborhood residents stopping in to play a diddy or two. It's all in good fun, so whether you're a trained pianist or not–hey, just hit a key or two as an ode to our fair neighborhood.

Only 6 days left to stop in and play! The piano will be gone by Monday, July 5th.

The pianos are part of Play Me, Im Yours, a public art project created by Sing for Hope. 60 pianos are installed in parks and public places througout NYC, including two in Fort Greene Park–one on Myrtle and Washington Park, the other up the hill at the north oval, just opposite the Prison Ship Martyrs Monument.
