Celebrating Cannabis

Saturday, May 7 | 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM
  • In-Person and Live Streamed

Brower Center - Goldman Theater

  • 2022
  • Health, Psychology & Spirituality

    Cannabis has transcended its outdated “wacky tobaccy” reputation. These days, it can be consumed in everything from gummies to hot cocoa, with uses for everyone from chronic pain sufferers to marathon runners to even pets. In the “approachable, readable, beautifully designed” (Mollie Katzen) The Joy of Cannabis, Melanie Abrams and Larry Smith use science and research to show us 75 ways recreational weed can enhance productivity, creativity, even memory (forget that old “lazy stoner” stereotype!). Zooming in to participate virtually is Monica Lo with her gorgeously candy-colored The Weed Gummies Cookbook, a delicious guide to creating your own edibles. Welcome to the Golden Age of Cannabis: it’s about aiming high, not getting high.

    The bookstore partner for this session is Eastwind Books of Berkeley! Buy the books online at Bookshop.org or purchase them in person at the Festival. More information here.

    Book signing information: East Wind Books Tent at the Bookstore Blv (corner of Allston & Milvia in the Outdoor Fair) at 3:15 PM
