Piano Time painting in process

Clarkia Cobb painting music and manadals
for Piano Time 2013

Slugs, lizards, anemones and more! Five newly-donated pianos for Piano Time 2013 are now in the painting site and the artists are hard at work.

This year’s concoctions include themes of tide pools, landscape and ferries, slugs, lizards and music mandalas.

You can watch the artists at work in the donated storefront at 1508 NE 179th Street in North City between the water store and the nail salon. They are there at various times but with just ten more days to complete their creations you’re apt to find at least someone painting when you stop by.  

Thanks to families who donated beloved, but no longer needed pianos, Prosser Piano for the piano pick-up, delivery and tuning, to the property owner for donation of the painting space and to 4Culture for helping make this happen with an Arts Project award.

Help celebrate Piano Time on Arts al Fresco on Thursday, August 1st at Shoreline City Hall and the Park at Town Center from 6:00-8:30pm.

These five pianos, along with seven from last year, will be out in public places all of August for everyone to play. Maps with locations and information will be available on August 1st.
For more information contact Ros Bird, Shoreline Public Art Coordinator.
