Join us for an evening of contemporary music dedicated to the topic of environmental conservation, intended to inspire thought and spark conversation. Ecce’s residency at the Athenæum reflects the institution’s historically significant role as a hub of civic discourse. The evening will consist of a performance and community forum with presentations by leading environmental innovators.
ECCE is a community of accomplished musicians who are committed to presenting music, theater, and interdisciplinary art in a captivating and visionary way.

The Athenæum's five galleried floors overlook the peaceful Granary Burying Ground, and, as Gamaliel Bradford wrote in 1931, "it is safe to say that [no library] anywhere has more an atmosphere of its own, that none is more conducive to intellectual aspiration and spiritual peace." The building was designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1966.
