Kerista Commune
1971 - 1991
This site is dedicated
to the past members of Kerista.

Many of them put their heart and souls
into the commune

While we have all gone on
to bigger and better things,
our time in the commune
was important to us,
and may have been the single
most defining moment of our lives.

If you were a Kerista Commune member
for any length of time,

If you were NOT a Kerista Commune member
but had some experience of our scene,

If you just want to speak your mind about Kerista

I will copyright your writings under whatever
name or pseudonym you provide me.
