The S.P.A.C.E. Race 5K takes place on the campus of the University of Georgia on Saturday October 24th at 9 am. For more information visit www.nuci.org/spacerace. The race is an annual event that provides funding for Nuçi’s Space, a nonprofit musicians' support center in Athens, GA.
Nuçi’s Space is a non-profit health and music resource center in Athens, GA. The aim of the organization is to prevent suicide by providing obstacle free treatment for musicians suffering from depression and other such disorders as well as to assist in the emotional, physical and professional well-being of musicians.
In 1999, the Phillips family of Atlanta formed the Nuçi Phillips Memorial Foundation in memory of their 22-year-old son and brother Nuçi, who in 1996 killed himself after a long battle with major depression. Nuçi was a talented musician and a promising student at the University of Georgia in Athens.
