2023 Keys for the City Sponsors

Thank you to our 2023 Keys for the City Sponsors:

Join our generous supporters above. We’re currently Seeking Sponsors!

There are numerous ways and many levels of commitment where you can support Lancaster’s most visible, longest running, dynamic, and beloved public art exhibits. From May – October, MFE will place anywhere from 12 – 20 fully designed and painted pianos throughout Lancaster city. These pianos provide a wonderful advertising platform for your company or organization. Literally tens of thousands of people will see and hear these pianos through the five month period they are on the streets.

Additionally, proceeds from this public art and music initiative directly support Music For Everyone’s “Annual Instrument Grant Program”. To date, through our generous sponsors, MFE has been able to provide over 12,500 instruments, supporting EVERY school district in Lancaster County.
