Happy Friday! Wherever you are in the world, I hope that this PSA Promo Alert finds you well at the start of a new weekend and as the second month of 2025 comes to a close.
As for the nature of this particularly alliteration-riddled PSA Promo, for now I’ll be brief(ish)…
Tonight in Boston: a *truly groovy* - “final Friday night in February” group activity for cannabis, psychedelic, and general plant medicine enthusiasts from across New England is set to debut in the hear of historic Beantown at New Dia Cannabis Co - Boston’s newest psychedelic community forum, just steps away from the entrance gates to Fenway Park.
Presented by Talking Joints Memo in partnership with Psychedelic State(s) of America (PSA) and Psychedelics Today (PT) with support from NECANN,, The Weedaker Group, and a growing number of regionally-based advocacy and education “community partners” - tonight’s inaugural showcase is set to be the first in a new monthly series and fittingly - PSA’s *first-ever* in-person event partnership features a politically attention-worthy, highly-veritable “who’s who” of New England’s newest generation of grassroots psychedelic community members, organizations, local businesses & brands from across Massachusetts and greater New England.
Check out the gallery photos below for more info about each panelists, and read on even further for a breakdown of tonight’s programming -and if you’re in or around Boston and are able to make it down to historic Lansdowne Street in person, be sure to RSVP in advance here!
