Nutter Home Loans Celebrates the Inclusive Updates to the Sybil Silkwood Nutter Playground
EntSun News/10798032
Kansas City's BIG Piano at the playground also restored with help from Variety KC
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - EntSun -- 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.

Some of the donors who contributed to the project include Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes through his 15 and the Mahomes Foundation, Sporting Kansas City, and Nutter Home Loans, among others.
"We are honored to be a part of making this new, inclusive playground and restored piano a reality," said James Nutter, CEO of Nutter Home Loans. "The piano and playground are extraordinary for our community with children and their families visiting Children's Mercy Hospital and surrounding areas."
The Sybil Silkwood Nutter Playground is situated within Hospital Hill Park, a park in the Kansas City Parks system, at 2401 Gillham Rd in Kansas City, Missouri.
