The Henry Miller Library has served as a center for cultural events in Big Sur since 1981. It has subsisted on small grants and ticket and book sales until now. This year it has to upgrade its bathrooms or face closure. The fundraising campaign began with a concert Monday, June 25th, by Philip Glass and Joanna Newsom with Tim Fain.

The concert was also the 2012 kick-off event for the Days and Night Festival, which will continue later in the summer in Carmel Valley and Big Sur.
