Win £950 of prizes thanks to Play Me, I’m Yours sponsors
We are on the hunt for the ‘standout moment’ of artist Luke Jerram’s Play Me, I’m Yours street pianos project in Bristol – the photo or video that best showcases the city’s creativity.
If you’re a pianist or a group of musicians with a plan to jam together around one of the pianos, a choir or a rapper, make sure you get one of your friends to capture the moment so you can enter.
We are interested in both striking photos and videos of performances that illustrate the city’s creative flair, as well as quirky, unusual moments such as a chance meeting or maybe even a wedding proposal…
