Come on downtown and tickle those ivories. 

The Downtown Penticton Association has added a piano in Nanaimo Square to add a little bit of joy to the area and encourage residents to come on down. 

Hoping to bring music and creativity to the streets, local artists will soon be painting the piano for an interactive art display.

The piano will also undergo frequent daily cleaning to give players peace of mind. 

However, social distancing and sanitization before and after playing is also encouraged.  

The piano will be open for use until the end of September, weather permitting.
