Live Show by Night Beats
DJ Set by Al Lover
Light Show by Mad Alchemy Liquid Lights
If you're going to San Francisco...what better way to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Summer of Love than a party in the heart of Golden Gate Park? Just blocks away from the Haight Street epicenter of this historic cultural celebration, NightLife at the California Academy of Sciences will host a night of psychedelic science.
----> Hear from Human Sexuality experts Robert Lawrence, Carol Queen about cultural contributions that put free love on the map.
----> Listen to a talk from writer Joel Selvin about the colorful and occasionally dark history of the era.
----> Sit down for a Q&A with legendary Rock journalist Ben Fong-Torres and local Radio personalities Irish Greg and Renee Richardson to learn more about the unreal tales of the times.
----> Immerse yourself in the history of the man and the venue that transformed the concert industry- Bill Graham and The Fillmore.
----> Learn more about the history of LGBT communities in the late 1960's from the GLBT Historical Society and get introduced to the groundbreaking LGBT performance group, The Cockettes.
----> Discover the chemistry behind psychedelics and their mind-bending effects on the human brain.
----> Make peace (and crafts!) as you create dreamy marbled patterns of your own.
----> Get schooled on scientific breakthroughs of the 1960s, and learn how groundbreaking innovations in space and technology left an indelible mark in the world of science.
----> Turn on, tune in, and drop out with a live psych-rock performance from Night Beats and jam to the vintage sounds of Pysch-rock DJ, Al Lover.
Stay tuned for more opportunities to enjoy live outdoor concerts this season during NightLife LIVE, the Academy’s summer music series.
