By Lachlan Ellis<\/p>\n

A piano arranged by Moorabool Shire Council for free public use over summer has sadly been vandalised, with the culprit unknown.<\/p>\n

Situated at the Eddie Toole Reserve, Bacchus Marsh, the piano is one of two set up by Council under the \u2018Pop-Up Pianos\u2019 project, with the other located at A.A. McLean Reserve Ballan.<\/p>\n

Both pianos were sourced from the community, and were painted by local artists with beautiful, eye-catching designs.<\/p>\n

However, photos of the pop-up piano at Eddie Toole Reserve were posted on social media on 19 March, showing a panel smashed off the piano.<\/p>\n

A Council spokesperson said it was disappointing to see the piano vandalised, but it was due to be removed anyway.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe piano was due to be decommissioned, as rain had made it unplayable. Our arts team has arranged for it to be removed,\u201d Council\u2019s spokesperson told the Moorabool News.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe piece was always planned to be ephemeral for use over the summer months, or as long as it lasted. It lasted well, and was a shame it was vandalised but was due to be removed anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n

The pop-up pianos were set up last December, and are due to be removed at the end of March from both locations.<\/p>\n
