Take a trip back to San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury in the summer of 1967—a remarkable moment when thousands of young people gathered in search of something different, believing that peace, love and freedom might actually change the world. The Summer of Love was part of a broader music, art, and cultural revolution, and its influence would extend far beyond San Francisco, leaving an enduring aesthetic and cultural legacy.

At the center of this extraordinary moment was a visual revolution. The legendary psychedelic posters created for the Fillmore, Avalon Ballroom and other San Francisco venues transformed the concert advertisement into an entirely new form of American art. With their explosive color, intricate lettering, and surreal imagery, these posters became the visual language of the counterculture and remain among the most recognizable images of the 1960s.

Featuring approximately 60 original psychedelic concert posters, Summer of Love: 60 Years On explores the music, art, and cultural upheavals of 1967 through the work of the artists who gave the era its unforgettable visual identity. It was a brief, extraordinary moment when a generation believed that a higher level of human consciousness was possible and that the world could be changed with peace and love.
