District216 Members Start Petition and Talks with Councilmembers to Legalize Possession and Use of Psilocybin Mushrooms and More in City.

The Santa Barbara Summer Solstice Celebration is renowned for its vibrant atmosphere and diverse exhibits. This year we were honored to have a booth for District216 at the event. As an organization dedicated to producing remarkable experiences and fostering a strong sense of community, our District216 booth attracted festival goers, offering information about our events, the perks of membership, and engaging conversations on psychedelics-related subjects. Also over the span of two sunny days in the park, District216 garnered support for a pivotal petition aimed at decriminalizing entheogenic plants and fungi in Santa Barbara.

We're thrilled to share the exciting news that Lucid Therapeutics, a local Santa Barbara ketamine therapy business, has become a new Business Member of District216. Our organization is dedicated to fostering a vibrant and supportive community, and having Lucid Therapeutics on board aligns perfectly with our mission. Their commitment to empowering individuals through safe and innovative psychedelic therapy is truly commendable.

We are endlessly grateful for an epic night with our community. The collective energy and spirit of all who participated left us overflowing with love and inspiration. We are just getting started and can't wait to host our next Marquee Event on May 20th, 2023.

The Santa Barbara Independent’s cover story in the fall of 2022 featured “the psychedelic surge” and highlighted our very own District216.
