COVID-19 has changed the way we mobilize and socialize. We’ve risen to the challenge to nurture safe communal spaces by organizing outdoor and small scale events. Additionally, our lineup includes curated events (online and in-person) from brand affiliates and partnered organizations. Affiliate events are marked with an orange chat box in the upper-right corner.

Pop-Up Cypher
In 2020, The Ounce and TheRapTrade partnered to host the Pop-Up Cypher, an outdoor traditional freestyle session and verse competition. Our goal was to foster a safe and fun community for artists to commune, practice and compete.

Puff and Pose
A concept coined in 2019, Puff and Pose is the original cannabis friendly vanity affair. Whether you’re attending for a good time or seeking opportunity to collaborate with local brands, dress to impress and don’t forget to hold that pose!
