Through dozens of rare historical photographs and engaging storytelling, you'll witness the neighborhood's transformation: the 1967 hippie revolution, legendary music venues like the Fillmore, iconic residents including Janis Joplin and the Grateful Dead, the Free Clinic's groundbreaking work, and the lasting impact of this bohemian enclave on American culture.
