Known as the countercultural decade in the United States and other Western countries, the 60s featured a revolution in social norms: clothing, music, drugs, dress, sexuality, formalities, civil rights, precepts of military duty, and schooling. A wide range of music emerged; from popular music inspired by and including the Beatles, the folk music revival, to the poetic lyrics of Bob Dylan. The Sixties were also called the "cultural decade."

Start shopping today for your bell bottoms; go go boots; bright, swirling colors; psychedelic tie-dye shirts; mini skirts and maxi skirts!

Think Audrey Hepburn, Jackie Kennedy, Goldie Hawn, (Sonny and) Cher, Janis Joplin, and Twiggy, Andy Warhol, Jimi Hendrix, Cary Grant, the Beatles, Paul Newman, Elvis Presley, and the Rolling Stones.

Please mark your calendars for Saturday, October 14.
