Sponsored by the University of Colorado School of Public Health, these exhibitions demonstrate a commitment to science-based examination through a variety of artistic lenses. Together, they offer a fresh perspective on a sometimes uncomfortable subject. They are hosted in conjunction with a wider campaign by the University of Colorado School of Public Health that promotes awareness about high-concentration cannabis use through HB 1317.

“So much has changed in the industry since marijuana was legalized, There are a lot of unexplored questions about the increasing availability of high concentration marijuana products. We’re excited to showcase how these different creative minds approach this issue.” 

Dr. Ann Collier

Project co-Director, Community & Behavioral Health Associate Professor at the University of Colorado
