The Coutts Museum of Art will host their annual fundraiser featuring the traveling dueling pianos show, FunPianos! The show will be the third fundraiser for the art museum since the COVID-19 pandemic began.

The evening will feature two live pianists facing off to win over the entertainment of the crowd with their playing and singing skills. The music featured can be anything from classic rock, modern pop to well-known sing-a-longs. The FunPianos! crew engages the crowd in unique ways, pulling someone to sing along and giving them the chance to pay up in order to pull someone else to play along. Any tips given to the dueling pianos players during the evening will go back to the Coutts Museum of Art.

In addition a new silent auction will be held this year. The auction will feature original artwork by artists Barbara Stecklein, Jim Clements, and Jennifer Callaway. Each piece is one-of-a-kind and donated for this program in support of the Coutts Museum of Art.

All funds made during the program will fund exhibitions, educational programs, and events.

The event will be held on the Butler Community College campus at the Hubbard Welcome Center located at 901 S Haverhill. A ticket to the event includes access to the cash bar and silent auction, heavy hors d’oeuvres, and a night of live music you won’t forget.

The dueling piano show begins at 6pm on Friday, June 20. Tickets can be purchased at the Coutts Museum of Art located at 110 N Main St or online at couttsmuseum.org. Tickets start at $60 for members, and $75 for non-members. Table reservations are also available.
