We talk with Nicholas Meriwether, the first curator of the Grateful Dead Archive at UC Santa Cruz, about the band’s incredible collection of fan art. “I’ve come to realize that the art movement that accompanied the rise of the Dead is as much a part of what we became in the public eye as the songs and our playing of them.” – Robert Hunter, Lyricist, 2003 “If you want to know how the Dead was built, this is where you would go…the archive tells the whole story.” – Mickey Hart, Rolling Stone Magazine, April 1, 2010
