Notes: John Lennon and Yoko Ono opened their first joint art exhibition on this day. You Are Here took place at the Robert Fraser Gallery at 69 Duke Street, London.

The exhibition`s full title was You Are Here (To Yoko from John Lennon, With Love). Also in attendance were various guests,
reporters, and Apple`s publicist Derek Taylor. Lennon and Ono wore white, to match the white gallery walls and many of the exhibits.

At the launch ceremony Lennon and Ono released 365 white helium-filled balloons over London. Lennon proclaimed "I declare these
balloons high". Attached to each was a printed card with the words "You are here" on one side, and "Write to John Lennon, c/o The Robert Fraser Gallery, 69 Duke Street, London W1" on the other.
