Olive Scibelli and Kathryn Edwards at Drkmttr

Since 2015, all-ages venue Drkmttr has shown up for Nashville’s music communities in a ton of ways, from serving as a vital component in the city’s creative ecosystem to pivoting to host the Nashville Free Store to help out its neighbors when COVID came crashing down in 2020. In 2024, venue organizers took the well-deserved step of becoming a federally recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. This change helps the venue access more funding, including opening up myriad avenues for grants. Not only will this make Drkmttr stronger than ever in a climate where the challenges for small venues have only increased, but it will also support an expanded range of community programming that will help the venue fulfill its mission as a community pillar.
