The Estate of Jack Kerouac has confirmed that the scroll manuscript for On the Road will be housed and publicly displayed in Lowell, Massachusetts, at the Jack Kerouac Center following its purchase by Zach Bryan at auction for $12.1 million.
Bryan also purchased the scroll manuscript for The Dharma Bums, along with a collection of Kerouac's personal letters, all of which will also go on display.
The Jack Kerouac Center, currently under construction, will be housed in the Saint Jean Baptiste Church building in the author's hometown of Lowell. The church, where Kerouac once served as an altar boy and where mourners gathered for his 1969 funeral Mass, was purchased by Bryan in 2025 to be converted into a museum.

The @WomensNIT comes to Erie, and yours truly is on the call Thursday as @HurstWBB hosts @BinghamtonUWBB in the First Round!
First national tournament appearance for Mercyhurst WBB as a D1 program ☘️
As much as I’ve respected @zachlanebryan as an artist, his expensive and intentional work to preserve and honor Jack Kerouac’s legacy and impact on generations of writers is by far his most impressive work.

A Shawn 17 years my junior would love to hear that his favorite pitcher in baseball is on the @tigers all these years later. Welcome home, JV! 🐅
Hard to properly put into words what Jim Waters meant to the @ErieOtters.
On the one year anniversary of his passing, his name becomes permanently etched into the walls of the Erie Insurance Arena - exactly where it belongs 💙💛
