Horizons Perspectives on Psychedelics Conference coming next month
🕑 Added 2019-09-13 17:57:10 +0000 UTCIf anyone is interested (especially those in the NorthEast US), there will be what seems to be shaping up as a pretty fine conference on psychedelics / plant medicine in New York City in October, tickets are currently $165 for just Sat/Sun (on Friday there is a "mixer" event in the evening, those tickets are sold out, and Thursday/Friday there are also classes for licensed therapists). Anyway, I will be there for the main events Saturday and Sunday. If anyone wants to meet up, perhaps it could be arranged (IM or email gordotek@protonmail.com). Below is more info about the speakers.
