Pianola Public Pianos

We are a community art project dedicated to placing free, beautifully painted pianos throughout New Orleans to add art, music and beauty to our city.

Our pianos are restored, painted by local artists, installed in public spaces, & then permanently donated We fervently believe that music belongs everywhere, and when pianos are installed in our shared spaces, it changes the way we interact with each other, and gives us the opportunity to connect in deeper and more meaningful ways. Our second hand pianos are meticulously refurbished, hand painted
