After 4 years in storage since the beginning of the COVID
lockdowns, and one year on from an ambitious fundraising
gala, the Whakamana Cannabis Museum is staging a triumphant
return to the New Zealand cultural landscape in one of
Auckland CBD’s most majestic heritage buildings. Abe
Gray, a 25 year veteran cannabis expert and activist, has
teamed up with local investors to transform the iconic
Hopetoun Alpha building into ‘Green House’, the new
centre of New Zealand’s rapidly growing medicinal cannabis
industry.
Green House incorporates a legal medicinal
cannabis dispensary, the re-opened Whakamana Cannabis
Museum, the Calyx Clinic specialist medicinal cannabis
prescriber, and a medicinal cannabis patient’s social
club, alongside future food and beverage options, inside
Aotearoa’s first and only cannabis focused, and cannabis
consumption friendly events venue. This is in fact the first
of its kind facility in all of Australasia.
To mark
this historic milestone for the Whakamana Cannabis Museum,
the new Green House venture and the NZ Medicinal Cannabis
Industry as a whole, the local Member of Parliament Chloe
Swarbrick will be ceremonially cutting the ribbon and
officially opening the facility to the public on Friday,
August 9th from 3:30 – 4:20pm.
