Global Cannabis March

Hello everyone! Welcome to the 18th annual Global Cannabis March- Portland, Oregon. This march takes place simultaneously in cities around the world. March with 200 cities and 40 countries and join in the global recognition of the need for and benefits of cannabis. Everyone is welcome. This is a family friendly event!! We leave all of our differences aside for this one day to enjoy our Global Cannabis March and to show solidarity and raise awareness for our plant. We will assemble in the parking lot of One Draw Gallery at 11am. There will be personal cannabis stories shared from 11am-11:45am. At 11:45am, we will begin the march with a group cinnamon roll hug to honor all those warriors lost in this plant war (drug war). We start the actual MARCH AT HIGH NOON. We all need to make sure our marchers stay safe and respectful at all times. There will be Safe Keepers (volunteer security) to direct the route and help coordinate a safe environment. Please listen to the Safe Keepers!! We must stay on the sidewalks and use crosswalks/lights. Please use garbage and recycling as provided and the general Oregonian rule of you pack it in, you pack it out. REMINDER: Oregon law prohibits ANY public cannabis use or consumption of any kind. This will be strictly enforced for the duration of the event. PLEASE NOTE: This is not the usual location. Permitting wouldn't allow the usual location and we almost didn't get to have a march. Thank you patients for not letting this happen!!! This year's venue is much smaller and the city has issued a different permit (sidewalk march, no vendors). The march is 30 blocks with a 20 block secondary route for those who need to travel less distance. We will all start the march together, have a place to stop for those who need it while others march on, then join together for the end again. The venue is a business with a parking lot. WE MUST STAY ON THE SIDEWALKS OR ON THE ONE DRAW GALLERY PROPERTY. WE CANNOT NOT SMOKE, VAPE, OR LITTER. We thank you in advance for being mindful of the differences for this year. One Love canna brothers and sisters <3
