Today is the kickoff to our first-ever Women In Cannabis weekend, and we’re more than a little excited! Marijuana is now legal in some fashion (be that recreational or medical) in 33 states, and the national enthusiasm for legalization has begun to spill over into the lifestyle and wellness spaces. The industry is being completely reimagined, and women are taking their rightful place at the forefront of innovation.
To celebrate the many female entrepreneurs, creatives, and activists leading this wave of reform, we partnered with Limone Creative to create two full days of educational panel discussions, plus interactive pop-ups—think hand-poke tattoos, CBD massages, gummy sampling, and more. Check out the full weekend schedule at The Hoxton Hotel, and be sure to stop by to meet the leading ladies of the cannabis industry.
