Local Author Talk at Bixby - "Pilgrims of Woodstock"

Past event
Oct 10, 2019, 7 to 8 PM

Author, John Kane will lead a multimedia lecture focused on his photo-book, "Pilgrims of Woodstock". Come hear about how the book was made, the Woodstock experience of 1969, and more. Books will be available for sale, cash and credit accepted. Light refreshments will be served. This program is made possible by the Freda Fishman Stroh Cultural Events Fund.

In the summer of 1969, 400,000 people from across the country came together and redefined the music scene forever. Though the legacy and lore of Woodstock lives on in the memory of its attendees, a new generation can experience the real and unedited festival through Richard Bellacks' never-before-seen photographs and John Kane's incredible new interviews.

"Pilgrims of Woodstock" offers a vivid and intimate portrait of the overlooked stars of the festival: the everyday people who made Woodstock unforgettable. The photographs and interviews capture attendees' profound personal moments across hundreds of acres of farmland, as they meditated, played music, cooked food at night, and congregated around campfires. For three days, they helped and relied on each other in peace and harmony. For most, it was a life-changing event.
