“Stars, Cars & Guitars” Display Reflects Surfing’s Ascendance as Cultural Touchstone Our “Stars, Cars and Guitars” exhibit demonstrates how, in less than a decade, from the years from 1958 to 1965, surfing related elements came to dominate popular culture forming a lasting effect on California, America and the world at large. From iconic record albums, period surfboards, fashion artifacts, seminal photographic images and memorabilia, visitors will get a clearer sense of why this era is considered the “golden age” of surfing and the surfing lifestyle. This exhibit presents modern surfing’s formative period and is a remembrance of modern surfing’s dawn. It had a defining influence on California’s image and an indelible effect on global culture that is just beginning to be recognized in recent years. From the film Gidget in 1959 to Dick Dales “Let’s Go Trippin’” in 1961 through the “Endless Summer” documentary in 1964, the surf craze had ignited from a swell to a full Tsunami with the peak in 1965 In 1966 boards went short, hair went long, and a golden era evolved into surfing’s next phase. Almost overnight 1967’s Summer of Love and flower power were in full bloom. There is only a very short time left to see this rare and special exhibit. It is open now through Labor and day and then it is being taken down. O it is gone it is gone. For further information, please visit https://surfmuseum.org/ or call (760) 721-6876 contact the museum during operating hours from 10 a.m.- 4 p.m. daily.
