There will be much more than ebony and ivory on Te Puke Library's piano.
The piano will eventually be stationed outside the library for anyone passing - or making a special trip - to tinkle.
But before that, it is being spruced up with artwork, thanks to the combined efforts of Te Puke High School students Taka Kabuati, Rico Turnbull and Masiah Tahuri, their teacher Josephine McDougall and Pukehina artist Teimana (Des) Mohi.
Josephine says the project began last year when Te Puke Library team leader Amanda-Jane McFadden approached the school to ask if there was interest in students brightening up the piano with artwork.
''We started by talking about what Te Puke means to them, then we began working on the design,'' says Josephine.
