SUMMER 2024 MARKS THE 55TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE WOODSTOCK FESTIVAL OF MUSIC AND ARTS
The Summer of 1969, marked a pivotal time in Woodstock’s history. Inspired by the swell of creativity and encouraged by the Sound-Outs (Hosted by Pan Copeland on her land at the border of Woodstock & Saugerties) Michael Lang relocated to Woodstock with a vision to bring the dream of a massive peaceful gathering to the town.
What didn’t end up happening in Woodstock, did change history for more than those who attended and definitely the town. Within days of the festival in Bethel, New York, Woodstock found itself taking in many new neighbors. That particular influx of added countercultural population undoubtedly set a tone that continues to resonate 55 years later.
