Twenty years ago, several United Church of Fayetteville members conceived the idea to provide Central New York musicians a venue for local audiences to enjoy music while also raising funds to serve the Fayetteville-Manlius community.
From this idea, Steeple Coffee House was born.
At SCH, you can hear CNY favorites and SAMMY award-winning artists playing a range of genres, including bluegrass, folk, jazz, and classic rock’n roll.
Seventy percent of SCH funds raised go towards paying the local musicians with the remaining 30% supporting UCF and its Mission/Outreach ministries, such as the FM Food Pantry.
Steeple Coffee House is held the second and fourth Saturdays of the month from September to May, excluding December.
Doors generally open at 6:30 p.m. and performances run from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m.
Suggested admission is $15 to $20 at the door and children are free.
Admission includes a beverage and a homemade dessert.
