Civil rights sit-ins. Bell-bottoms. Anti-war marches. Student Power. Afros. Mini-skirts. Hippies. Riots. Space flights. The generation gap.

Those hallmarks of the turbulent 1960’s will be rekindled this year at the annual “Spirit of the ‘60’s Coffeehouse.”

The show begins at 7:30pm in the church basement but get there early for a good seat.
