Artist Statement: Silhouettes of the New York City skyline wrap around a backdrop as colorful as the city itself.
This piano was painted by 3rd graders from P.S. 126's Y School program. The Y Schools program model establishes a full-time Y presence in partner schools. Y Schools takes a holistic approach to youth development by offering enhanced programs and services that extend from the opening school bell to day’s end. Through our partnership with the YMCA, Sing for Hope’s Youth Arts program connects Y kids at P.S. 126 with Volunteer Artists under the guidance of experienced staff in a creative arts curriculum designed to stimulate confidence, enhance self-esteem, encourage self-expression, and nurture positive development in young people and local communities.
