What is a Street Piano? It’s a piano placed in a public area that encourages passersby to stop and play.
Why a Street Piano? Who is it for? Street Pianos draw pedestrians, turning any location into a concert venue / cultural hub. By giving residents an instrument to play together, this project encourages locals to share their knowledge, initiate their own ‘play’, and create relationships, setting a precedent for positive experiences in Kemptville’s public spaces and inviting foot traffic to downtown businesses.

When and where are the concerts taking place? This year the concert series takes place on Saturday afternoons at 2 pm from June to the end of August at the North Grenville Public Library.
