If you wish to find where the 1960s hippies settled down, Vashon Island is supposedly the resting ground. But if you ever wondered where the hippies are still being grown, Olympia is the place. Amplifying the relaxing Seattle cafe attitude, Olympia has an eccentric kick to its culture emanating from the local art and music scene and Evergreen State College’s youth and KAOS Radio. Alongside the mainstream political and business culture of Washington State’s Capitol, this eclectic but niche downtown Olympia skate shop features album and film collections rivaling the trendiest shops of NYC, converse high-tops, incense, and custom skateboards.
