HAIGHT ASHBURY GUIDE & MAP CELEBRATION!

Sep 14 2010 7:30 pm

 

For several years, our Haight Ashbury neighbors and long-time residents Jack and Gay Reineck (Rufus Graphics) have been working on a project to design and publish a new, concise but thorough, history and guide to the Haight Ashbury. The project stemmed from a local discussion about a Haight Ashbury Museum; in lieu of a museum, not possible at this time, they’ve created a nifty little “paper museum” that tells the story of the Haight from before the 1906 earthquake through the 60s (including sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll) and to today.   With a fascinating text, and a detailed Haight Ashbury map, accompanying over 100 photographs, many of them historical, and some from contemporary photographers including Lisa Law and Herbie Green, this is a terrific book for visitors and residents alike.   

 

Tonight we celebrate our neighborhood’s history with Jack and Gay!
