Living Archive
The Kesey Farm Project stewards the personal archives of Ken Kesey and the many artists, writers, and collaborators who passed through the Farm from the 1960s up until today. As the Farm remains an active site of creative production, we continue to gather the material ephemera left behind or donated as people pass through (and so the archive is “living”).
This collection—spanning books, correspondence, photographs, art, and ephemera—documents decades of experimentation, community, and cultural inquiry.
Supported by individual donors and a grant from the Chambers Family Foundation, we are beginning to digitize and catalog the collection to ensure long-term preservation and accessibility, both in-person and online. Select materials can currently be viewed by appointment during guided visits and events.
Your contribution helps preserve, continue, and share this creative history.
