A Brief History
The JOHNES Festival is an Earth Day festival 
for cannabis reform. It was
founded as a result of a vision from a friend:
Chad Westerberg from Waterbury, CT in early '96. He brought 
it to the attention of Western Connecticut State 
University's prospective chapter of NORML 
(now WCSU NORML), and the rest is history.  
This event has a new professional look and will be annual,
seeing that we're into our third year, 
and you're all invited to take part 
at the next one, JOHNES 2000 , 
which will happen on April 15th at the 
Charles Ives Center for the Arts
on Western Connecticut State University's
Westside Campus. 

This year will definitely be bigger and better.  
If you would like to ensure this, please contact
us with feedback and input, and SIGN OUR GUESTBOOK.

will be on Saturday April 15th
