About The Event

We invite you to the Community Arts Center for piano performances, alive with sounds and color! Keep an eye out—and an ear open—for Pianos in the City. To commemorate the Cleveland International Piano Competition’s 50th anniversary, Piano Cleveland has placed 6 pianos around the city with weekly performances at each location.

View the community-painted piano placed at the CAC, designed by artist Raymond Rodriguez and activated by a professional pianist. Rodriguez is a Puerto Rican artist currently based in Cleveland. His artistic vision is characterized by an exploration of color, emotions, characters, and dreams. Some of his influences are artists like Inka Essenhigh, Remedios Varo, René Magritte, Loish, and TB Choi.
