[BCMA] High Times at the Nelson Museum with the release of 'Grow Show'

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

Hi there - the Nelson Museum is proud to announce the launch of the long-awaited publication Grow Show. This beautiful book is the first of its kind – telling the story of cannabis culture through from the perspective of growers, smokers, advocates, dissenters, and enforcers. Many of the stories in Grow Show have never been shared publicly; together they chronicle an underground economy that built a small rural town in the BC Interior into the birthplace of legendary BC Bud.

I've attached a press release that provides further information about the book and the launch event – please contact me if you would like further info or to arrange a conversation with Curator Arin Fay.

Thanks,
Steph
