Opening July 17, “Thin Wild Mercury: Dylan 1966” is an immersive multimedia exhibition that captures the spectacle, power and fury of Dylan’s landmark year following his controversial electric performance at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival. 

From his fall 1965 US concert dates with The Band, to the recording and release of “Blonde on Blonde” and the writing of his first novel, “Tarantula,” to the raucous and defiant 1966 World Tour, “Thin Wild Mercury: Dylan 1966” features numerous never-before-seen manuscripts, photographs and newly restored film footage from the era.
