The Barry Kay Archive identifies itself as the patron institution honouring the artistic achievements of the stage & costume designer and photographer Barry Kay. The Archive's primary purpose is to help maintain awareness and encourage appreciation of Kay and his creations. It preserves, conserves and archives his works and represents a model project for digitizing an artistic theatre design estate. With its progressively expanding, illustrated internet presence, it is an invaluable online research facility on Kay's enormous artistic output, serving the academic world as much as the private sector and the humanities at large.

To the best of our knowledge, the Barry Kay Archive is the world's only online archive exclusively dedicated to a singular, internationally distinguished stage and costume designer and his works.

The following links lead to detailed reading about Barry Kay and the Barry Kay Archive.
