"Play Me, I'm Yours" applications
This year's Sculpture in the Streets project for downtown Albany will be "Play Me, I'm Yours." Blurbage:
Touring internationally since 2008, Play Me, I'm Yours is an artwork by British artist Luke Jerram. More than 1200 pianos have now been installed in 45 cities across the globe, from Paris to Santiago, bearing the simple invitation Play Me, I'm Yours. The project has already reached more than four million people worldwide.
The Downtown Albany Business District is presenting Play Me, I'm Yours from June 13 until July 27 2014. Ten pianos, decorated by local artists and community groups, will be located in parks, squares and other public spaces in Downtown Albany for anyone to play and enjoy.
The Downtown Albany BID is accepting applications from artists who are interested in decorating one of the pianos. Here's the application. The deadline is this Friday, April 25. (Yep, we should have mentioned this sooner.)
The Downtown Albany BID has advertised on AOA.

Whatever happened to last year's Sculpture in the Streets project? Did any of the Ghost signs get repainted?
