OPENING RECEPTION: SAT, MAY 20TH, 7-9PM
Arc Gallery 1246 Folsom St, SF

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, 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.

in the Project Gallery

New Bohemia Signs has been dealing exclusively in hand painted signs in San Francisco for a quarter century now, fully half of all the years since the Summer of Love, having been founded in 1992 by journeyman entrepreneur Steve Karbo, who insists that he owned the rst shop to sell bell-bo omed jeans on Haight Street! We are designers and sign writers who appreciate the art of a good looking hand-painted sign, and want nothing more than to keep spreading their love with a brush.
