Commission approves 2026 painted‑piano project; eight decorated pianos to appear downtown in summer
Summary
Troy Main Street presented the 2026 painted-piano public art program — eight artist-designed pianos to be placed downtown June 8 through about Sept. 1 — and the Planning Commission approved the program as presented.
The Planning Commission approved Troy Main Street’s 2026 painted-piano project, which will place eight artist-designed pianos around downtown beginning June 8 (shortly after the Strawberry Festival) and keep them on display through roughly Sept. 1.
Amy Brinick, speaking for Troy Main Street, said the eight pianos are scheduled to go out June 8 and remain through about Sept. 1; she said the themes reflect selections by the America 250 Ohio Commission and that the locations are similar to previous years. "They are set to go out on June 8 right after the Strawberry Festival and they'll be out until September 1st or around then," she said.
A commissioner moved to approve the project as presented; the motion was seconded and passed by roll-call vote with commissioners recorded as voting in the affirmative.
The approval grants concept-level permission for the painted pianos and for the locations shown on the submitted map; the transcript does not record details about funding, insurance, or maintenance responsibilities for the installations.
