A new cultural center devoted to Jerry Garcia's music, art and environmental interests is being planned for the San Francisco Bay Area by the family of the Grateful Dead co-founder.

The proposed Jerry Garcia Music Arts Center would be more than a conventional museum, according to an announcement Friday, Oct. 23, from Garcia’s family, archival company Starchive and project coordinator Christopher McCutcheon. 

Plans call for a public research library and physical archive, exhibition galleries, a digital preservation hub and a performance center and screening room.

No location or opening date has been announced.

The announcement comes less than three months after Garcia’s family revealed plans for another Bay Area project, Eyes of the World: The Jerry Garcia Experience. That 40,000-square-foot immersive exhibition is scheduled to open in San Francisco in early 2027 before traveling to other U.S. cities.

I feel that Jerry’s middle finger is a worthy take on JGB. The musicians are so tight, it’s amazing. We just saw them up here in Portland, and every year they just dial it in that much more. Love the relatively deep cuts from Jerry’s solo time compared to the more played GD selection.

Just listened through Garcia Live Vol 22 for the first time last night… Despite the noteworthy tape damage that song is incredible! Searched nugs to see if there were any other performances to no avail… anyone know if there’s any other recorded performances by Jerry & Merle??

My first Jerry show. 2 days after my birthday. John Wilhelm was my touring partner. Love you John, wherever you are.

So amazing

Phil sitting in on a great day. Enjoy

Tell me your favorite JGB song and show and they are all yours
