The renovation of The Steeple blends the historic fabric of the building with contemporary design, creating an inspiring place for artists to work.
Newburgh is home to an interconnected arts community who are known to provide a warm welcome for visiting artists. Four of these visiting artists loved it so much they moved to the town permanently.
The Steeple is right at the heart of this creative community, and plays host to classes, events and exhibitions, engaging local people in the arts while acting as a focal point for artists from Newburgh and the surrounding areas.
