And how they changed Hebden Bridge
The Exhibition
How the Hippies Changed Hebden Bridge is an exhibition organised by the Hebden Bridge Local History Society. It aims to show how those who moved into our area in the 1970s - the locals called them 'hippies' - led to vast changes and a cultural renaissance of Hebden Bridge.
