Nutter Home Loans Celebrates the Inclusive Updates to the Sybil Silkwood Nutter Playground

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Rezul -- Nutter Home Loans was instrumental in getting the Big Walking Piano in the Sybil Silkwood Nutter Playground twenty years ago. Famed artist Remo Saraceni, responsible for the BIG Piano from the Tom Hank's movie BIG, installed this unique outdoor version on the grounds adjacent to the Children's Mercy Hospital campus in 1999. The piano is often referred to as a "walking piano" because it is played by walking or dancing on it, and it's inclusive so children with wheelchairs or leg braces can also play it.

After 20 years, the piano and playground were ready for an update. Variety KC, a nonprofit organization specializing in helping children with disabilities, led the effort to replace the playground by installing new, inclusive playground equipment, including the restoration of the walking piano and by adding other playground musical apparatuses. The playground is used frequently by families who are visiting Children's Mercy Hospital as well as by hospital therapists who incorporate the playground into their child wellness programs.
