Miss Grass Launches "Faces Of Cannabis" to Dismantle Harmful Stereotypes of the Cannabis Community

NEW YORK - Nov. 27, 2023 - PRLog -- Miss Grass, a leading women-owned cannabis brand, is thrilled to announce the launch of their groundbreaking advocacy campaign, "Faces of Cannabis," in partnership with purpose-driven cannabis dispensary Union Square Travel Agency (USQTA).

Debuting with a two-week pop-up gallery at USQTA's former location, the campaign confronts the stereotypes caused by over 90 years of racially-fueled propaganda and media bias that continue causing real harm to cannabis consumers—particularly Black and Brown communities who bear the disproportionate burdens of the War on Drugs.

Through a diverse array of portraiture and compelling narratives from New York cannabis consumers, "Faces of Cannabis" provides a platform for the wider community to advocate for normalization and share their personal experiences with the plant.

Gallery visitors can add their own face to the mission by stepping into the onsite portrait studio. Nationwide, people can join the cause by sharing their face and story on social with #facesof🌱.

Gallery Details:
Location: 62 E 13th Street NY, NY (Union Square Travel Agency's former spot)
Dates: December 6-20, 2023
Time: 12PM-8PM Daily

Attendees (21+) can reserve a free visit to the gallery at facesofcannabis.eventbrite.com. Walk-ins are also welcome with registration at the door.
