Sit a Spell and Play a Tune debuted in May, 2017 with an artfully decorated piano installed in Coronado Rotary Plaza at Tenth Street and Orange Avenue and remained at the site through the Annual Holiday Parade where it hosted a crowd of carolers.
In 2018, the Cultural Arts Commission expanded this popular program to three pianos. This public art installation provides access to music live from the streets of Coronado.
The original piano design was created by Coronado resident Jody Esquer.
