In addition to all the rad music, festival attendees will have the opportunity to view and purchase the work of select local artists, artisans, and craftsmen at the 420 Expo, Saturday, April 22nd at Distortion from 10 am-4 pm. Interspersed with vendors of interesting and eclectic wares will be information on medical marijuana and CBD products (check Blessed CBD) and even more 420 enthusiasts. NORML (National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws) will be in attendance to answer questions.
