Love-In. A Happening

ORGANIZED BY CINDY TOWER
Artwork curated by Rachael Duke and Barbara Felix
Music curated by Ernie Ramirez.

Inspired by the Love-In gatherings of the 1960s, this event draws from a time when artists and communities came together in hope, solidarity, and the shared belief that love could be a powerful force for social change. Emerging alongside the movement for peace during the Vietnam War and deeply connected to the Civil Rights Movement, that spirit feels especially meaningful today as we navigate the challenges of our own time.

Join us for an immersive celebration of artwork, music, and community that expresses LOVE in all of its splendid forms.

We believe that ART… IS… RESISTANCE.
And LOVE… IS… THE REMEDY.
Together, WE are the remedy.

about the venue:

• The venue is a private home. There will be an indoor gallery and outdoor garden gallery, both open to the public, with an attendant at the gate.
• There's plenty of free street parking available.
• There is no bathroom on site. This has not usually been an issue for our events in the past as there are several public buildings nearby.
• Every effort will be made to cool you off and prevent bug bites, but much of the space is in a lush garden, and it's July, so plan accordingly.
• There will be spontaneious moments of poetry and other surprises.
• The League of Women Voters will be present for anyone who has questions about voter registration for the upcoming midterm elections.

It will be splendid and lovely! Just ask your friends who've come to past shows!
