The correct option is option B. Woodstock Music and Art Fair served as a symbol by marking the end of the counterculture era of the 1960s.

Woodstock was a music festival held on a farm in the Catskill Mountains, northwest of New York City, between August 15-18, 1969, which attracted an audience of more than 400,000 and where 32 acts were performed outdoors.

It was described as a spectacular event that made real all the things that hippies believed in; peace, music, harmonious living, and an abundance of acid. Becoming the place where hippies finally had the chance to be a part of an entirely Utopian society and where counterculture, which was defined as the anti-establishment cultural phenomenon that developed first in the United Kingdom, then the United States and then spread throughout the Western world between the mid-1960s and the mid-1970s reached its peak.

However, although after Woodstock hippies still protested, had orgies, and mandated Free Love, there was a lack of urgency in their fight. This because once it was reached the common goal for which they had been worked, Woodstock, they felt fulfilled.
