Juliana Osinchuk for the ADN Art Snob blog: Anchorage musician and teacher Osinchuk describes her trip to Tok for the dedication -- at which she performed -- of the town's new piano, which had spent the previous two years as the concert piano at the Steinway gallery in Anchorage. "The crowning moment of everyone's efforts finally came in the evening, and the dedication concert began. ... The crowd's enthusiasm was overwhelming, and we could probably have played all night. After the concert adults and kids alike crowded around the Steinway, trying to touch it, play it and just bursting with excitement by its presence. They circled it, crawled underneath and marveled at its beauty. Pastor Able could barely get them to go home so he could close the church."
