The Harlem Culture Crawl and the National Jazz Museum in Harlem present Harlem Keys, a transformation of the museum into an afternoon open house of live solo piano. Presented from 1-4pm, visitors are invited to drop in at any time to experience a rotating series of intimate performances by pianists drawing from the Harlem jazz piano tradition. Come for a moment or stay for the afternoon as music, discovery, and Harlem’s rich piano legacy unfold in a relaxed, welcoming museum setting.
This event is part of the Harlem Culture Crawl.
The 2026 Harlem Culture Crawl welcomes neighbors and visitors alike to experience Harlem as both home and destination—a place where culture is lived, shared, and continuously reimagined. Across iconic spaces like the Morris-Jumel Mansion, the Harlem School of the Arts, the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, and the Studio Museum in Harlem, the Crawl brings together institutions that have long shaped Harlem’s cultural landscape. Rooted in the legacy of the Harlem Renaissance, these spaces honor history and memory while uplifting new voices in art, music, and storytelling. Whether you are rediscovering your neighborhood or exploring it for the first time, the Harlem Culture Crawl offers an open invitation to connect—with the stories, the creativity, and the people who continue to define Harlem today.

We are your go-to venue for off-site meetings, receptions, film screenings, workshops, networking events, socials and more. Located in the heart of Central Harlem’s thriving culinary and entertainment district, The National Jazz Museum in Harlem is the perfect place to hold your next gathering.
