“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.

Join us for a riveting 90-minute dance performance and conversation with the artists that delve deep into the heart of cultural convergence, narrating a story of unity, diversity and shared history through the universal language of dance. This captivating spectacle is an homage to the intricate tapestry of identities that emerged from nearly four centuries of Spanish colonization, weaving together the distinct but interconnected cultures of Mexico, the Philippines and Spain. At the core of "Mestizaje" is the celebration of mestizaje itself—a term that historically signifies the process of cultural and racial mixing between Indigenous peoples of the Americas and Europeans. This performance, however, expands the concept to encapsulate the rich exchange among the three regions, highlighting how each culture has been indelibly shaped by the others. Featuring two San Diego based dance companies: Danzarts and PASACAT
