Flower Piano is an inclusive, interactive music festival at the San Francisco Botanical Garden, inviting guests to discover 12 pianos across 55 acres featuring more than 8,000 kinds of plants from around the world. More than 100 curated performances mingle with hundreds of hours of impromptu playing by attendees of all ages and backgrounds at freely available pianos throughout the Garden. It’s a truly magical celebration of music and botanical wonder that now welcomes more than 75,000 visitors over 11 days.
“Being in places like public gardens lowers your blood pressure, lowers your cortisol, stress hormones, activates your brain in ways that it normally doesn’t work. Music does the same thing. When you combine those things, it’s pretty spectacular.”
