EXHIBITION: May 20, 2017 – June 10, 2017

The year 2017 marks the 50th Anniversary of the Summer of Love in San Francisco
 
The Summer of Love refers to the summer of 1967, when an unprecedented gathering of as many as 100,000 young people converged on the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood of San Francisco, creating a phenomenon of cultural and political rebellion. The Summer of Love became a defining moment of the 1960’s, as the hippie counterculture movement came into public awareness.

This exhibition pays tribute to the 1967 Summer of Love and celebrates it’s 50th anniversary with Bay Area artists who have created works that celebrate or reimagine the brief period in 1967 that was the Summer of Love.
