San Francisco is buzzing with a major tribute to the Grateful Dead, called Forever Grateful. It's a two-part event celebrating the band's legacy. One part is an art and artifact exhibit at the Height Street Art Center, featuring guitars and photos, running until September 20th. The second part, an immersive experience, just opened in Golden Gate Park, and will be there until October 25th. This part aims to put you right in the middle of the Grateful Dead's history, with interactive elements and a chance to create your own liquid light, show. This whole thing is about more than just the music. It's about the community that grew around the band. They've even brought out the iconic further bus. The one Ken Kese used for his cross-country trips back in 1965. You can also check out Jerry Garcia's classic BMW part right there. They're also planning live performances and have these phone booths set up, where you can share your own Grateful Dead stories. And to top it off, there's a free concert happening on Labor Day in Robin Williams Meadow,
right next to the exhibit featuring Grain Lash and Friends. It's a pretty comprehensive nod to a band that left a huge mark. From your city, powered by AI, this is California News Today. I'm Corey with The Story.
