Victoria Park Centre for the Arts was donated a community piano from the ABC in 2025. A mentoring series will be run in 2026, with the support of an arts grant from Town of Victoria Park, where senior pianists share their musical and creative experience with young and emerging musicians.

We are inviting observers (all ages/levels) along to this session in a friendly and safe environment. Free to attend, but registration is essential.

We’re delighted to announce our Piano in the Park mentors:
