The Final Episode of CNN’s The Sixties: “Sex, Drugs, and Rock N’ Roll”

Aug 5, 2014
7:00 PM
New York

The Paley Center will preview the final episode of CNN’s acclaimed series on the tumultuous 1960s that explores how American culture was radically transformed over a decade. The series finale, “Sex, Drugs, and Rock N’ Roll,” documents how the Baby Boom generation redefined the tastes, morals, and politics of a country during an era of unrelenting change, with commentary by Grace Slick, Tom Wolfe, Jann Wenner, and Tom Hanks. After the screening, our panel of influential musicians and experts will reflect upon the era’s resonance in art, fashion, and style, and how counterculture icons like the hippies and Timothy Leary are still relevant today.

Funding for this event is provided by 
The Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation 

This program is made possible, in part, by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.
