Bohemian Highways: Art & Culture Abide Then Divide Along the California Coast

After World War II and to the early 1980s, artists, writers, architects, performers, spiritual seekers, freethinkers, political dissenters, and social revolutionists gathered in California, intent on creating a new way of seeing and interacting with the world. The result was an unstoppable counterculture that blazed its way across the American tableau, forever changing the national and international spirt of art and culture.

Learn more about the fascinating individuals and groups who created an art, architecture, music, and, often, a productive creative mayhem along the entire Pacific coast, from the remote reaches of northern California, south to the beaches of San Diego.
