Walking Tour: Hippie Kitsilano – the ‘60s & ‘70s

Join author, artist and Heritage Vancouver’s first President, Michael Kluckner, for a ramble through the Kitsilano of the 1960s and 1970s, recalling Vancouver’s hippie community and its legacy of social activism.

The tour will pass by old coffee houses and meeting places, note some of the legendary communal houses, and put that era of Kitsilano into the context of Vancouver’s growth and development in the postwar years.

Michael Kluckner lived in Kitsilano back in the day, and wrote and drew cartoons for various alternative newspapers including Around Kitsilano, Terminal City Express and the Mount Pleasant Mouthpiece.

Tour begins at Kits House, 7th & Vine and ends near 4th Avenue.
