Lee Historical Society July Exhibit – Lee in the Tumltuous 1960’s

July 1 - July 31

Free

By popular demand, the Lee Historical Society will mount a major exhibit “Lee in the Tumultuous 1960’s” at the J. Peter Scolforo Gallery in the Lee Library throughout the month of July. After the sedate 1950’s, came the chaotic ‘60’s with the revolution in youth culture, the spread of drug abuse and the turmoil of a controversial war in Vietnam. If you remember that muddled decade, come and relive it; if not come and learn about our troubled past. It will be free and open to the public during regular library hours.

(The photo from the 1964 LHS yearbook, recalls controversy about hair where crew cuts were viewed as traditional and long hair was rebellious.)
