Counterculture is all about bringing people together. Because when we have each other, we can accomplish far more than any of us can do on our own. So in the spirit of the movements that came before us, we believe that given our location at the corner of Haight & Ashbury, it’s our privilege and responsibility that the Counterculture Museum should be a gathering place for our community. From readings and book events to art, music, history, discussions, and a lot more, there’s something for everyone.
