steeple campaign

The Future of Nuçi's Space Package includes a limited-edition screen-printed poster by Grammy Award-winning graphic designer and R.E.M. artistic director Chris Bilheimer, signed by all four original members of R.E.M.

As we exit the warm Summer months, we will be getting ready to renovate the area outside our beloved Steeple, including remodeling our deck stairs and installing a landing and railing around the entryway, making it safer for our visitors and staff. Thanks to a recent grant, we’ve been able to raise funds for this project, but we’re just a little bit shy of our goal! We need an additional $1,500 to complete this important renovation to one of Athens’ historic musical landmarks! 

For day 11 of 12 Days of Giving, we are offering several Steeple merch items, including our signed Athens Uncovered: Steeple Edition posters, Steeple bricks (which come with a certificate of authenticity and an engraved plaque, showcased in our courtyard, right around the corner from the Steeple), and Steeple bundles (including a poster, a steeple pin, and more)!

Own one of the original bricks from St. Mary's Church, where R.E.M. played their very first show, now preserved as part of the St. Mary's Steeple legacy.

To peruse our Steeple Merch items, visit our shop site at: nucisspace.square.site

Every dollar from every Steeple Merch item you buy will go toward this important renovation, sustaining our beloved historic Steeple and ensuring those who visit it are safe and comfortable!
