Here’s a sneak peek at the illicit grow exhibit which will pay homage to the underground cannabis industry.
The structure will be complete with false Mary Jane plants and an array of vintage cultivation equipment that prohibition growers will be sure to recognize.

According to the Uniform Crime Report from the FBI, more people were arrested for cannabis in 2019 than for all violent crimes put together.
Are you surprised by this statistic?

While many states have now legalized or decriminalized cannabis, the number of arrests for possession and distribution is still alarmingly high. Thousands of humans are currently incarcerated for cannabis related offenses.
These facts are juxtaposed against the multibillion-dollar cannabis industry that currently benefits industry giants as well as state and federal tax authorities.

Boston native Niambe McIntosh, daughter of legendary reggae musician and activist @petertosh, lost her brother Jawara to the war on cannabis.
Niambe continues her father’s work to destigmatize cannabis in honor of her late brother and in the service of the thousands of families across America who are oppressed by the war on cannabis. We’re honored to have her as a member of our curating council.
Hear Jawara’s story in the @corecannabismuseum Jail Cell Exhibit. #corecannabismuseum

To curate the museum exhibits and information, Core has assembled a Curating Council made up of New York Times bestselling authors, Harvard professors, and legendary activists.
The current collection urges guests to wholly consider the concept of incarceration, scrutinize society’s relationship with illicit substances and bring voice to those whose lives were impacted negatively by the current inequitable system.
