Join the PinkSlip Duo in commemorating the 55th anniversary of Woodstock! The iconic music festival, organized by Michael Lang, was expected to draw 50,000 people but attracted nearly half a million, causing traffic chaos and shutting down major highways. Woodstock became a symbol of peaceful coexistence and communal values of the Sixties. The lineup featured Richie Havens, Sweetwater, Tim Hardin, Melanie, Arlo Guthrie, Joan Baez, Santana, and many more, creating the soundtrack of a generation. Dr. Joan Friedenberg and Bill Bowen of the PinkSlip Duo will delve into this pop culture phenomenon with slides and live music, evoking the Woodstock experience. Join us for a nostalgic journey with sing-along lyrics projected for audience participation.
