"The Library isn't a remnant of what Big Sur was; it's the beating cultural heart of Big Sur right now" CNN (2011)
  
 
  
The Henry Miller Library is the cultural heart of Big Sur; the magical locale that Henry Miller himself attributes to being  "the first place (he) felt like home in America"; The Henry Miller Library is the central gathering point for all local artist, writers, musicians and poets. Widely hailed as a "must visit" in the area, the library pulsates on an indescribably wonderful vibration that's often characterized as the true spirit of Big Sur.

The library is not only a literary abode but a host to many special events and concerts, among those have graced the Henry Miller stage include; Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Arcade Fire and MGMT.
