Solventless Collaboration Rooted in Education and Art with Box Brown
Cannabis enthusiast and student of the art of solventless extraction
Every July 10th, the solventless community comes together to celebrate 710, our unofficial holiday honoring hash, rosin, and everything that makes the art of extraction so special. For years, The Press Club has marked this occasion by creating something meaningful for our community, whether through educational content, product innovations, or special releases that capture the spirit of what we do. This year, we're stoked to announce our most exciting 710 collaboration yet: a limited-edition sticker series created in partnership with acclaimed illustrator and educator Brian Box Brown.
Brian Box Brown the Artist, Educator, and Advocate
Box Brown has carved out a unique space in both the comics world and cannabis education community through his masterful ability to transform complex topics into accessible, engaging visual narratives. As an Eisner Award-winning cartoonist, Box has tackled subjects ranging from pop culture to social justice, but his cannabis-focused work has particularly resonated with those seeking honest, thoughtful commentary on prohibition, legalization, and cannabis culture.
His groundbreaking book Cannabis: The Illegalization of Weed in America presents the complex history of cannabis prohibition through compelling visual storytelling, while his ongoing syndicated comic strip Legalization Nation continues to explore cannabis policy and culture with wit and insight. Beyond cannabis, Box's diverse portfolio includes acclaimed works like André the Giant, Tetris, and The He-Man Effect, establishing him as a respected voice in nonfiction comics who brings both artistic skill and intellectual stimulation to every project.
A Perfect Partnership of Shared Values and Vision
The collaboration between The Press Club and Box Brown emerged from our shared commitment to education, accessibility, and authentic cannabis culture. Both of our missions center on empowering people with knowledge—The Press Club through teaching high-quality, home-based solventless extraction techniques, and Box Brown through visual storytelling that makes complex topics understandable and engaging.
We particularly admire Box's advocacy for accessible, home-based cannabis practices that put power back in the hands of individuals rather than corporate interests. His unique ability to distill complicated subjects into digestible, visually compelling content aligns perfectly with our educational mission and our belief that everyone should have access to the knowledge needed to create their own high-quality medicine at home.
The 2025 Sticker Series Where Education Meets Art
Our limited-edition 710 sticker collaboration centers on solventless education, featuring designs that celebrate fundamental extraction terminology while making these concepts accessible to newcomers and seasoned practitioners alike. Box Brown's distinctive artistic style brings playful energy to educational content, creating stickers that function as both conversation starters and learning tools.
The series explores essential solventless concepts like resin, trichomes, bubble hash, full melt, and more, through Box Brown's signature blend of clear visual communication and engaging design. Each sticker serves dual purposes: they're fun collectibles for hash enthusiasts while also introducing curious newcomers to the terminology and concepts that define our craft. This approach reflects our shared belief that education is best when it's not served as dry or intimidating. It can be engaging, accessible, and even enjoyable.
Supporting Grassroots Culture and Independent Artists
In an industry increasingly dominated by corporate interests, partnerships like this one celebrate the grassroots craftsmanship and authentic knowledge-sharing that built the solventless community. Working with Box Brown represents more than just commissioning artwork. For us, it's supporting an independent creative voice who has consistently advocated for social justice, cannabis reform, and authentic cultural expression.
This collaboration embodies our commitment to meaningful storytelling rather than superficial marketing. Box Brown brings genuine understanding of cannabis culture and the ability to communicate complex ideas with honesty and integrity. His work speaks to the values that drive our community: education, authenticity, and the belief that cannabis knowledge should be accessible to everyone.
We are very grateful and honored to be partnering with such a clear and strong voice!
Beyond Stickers and Our Ongoing Educational Mission
While these stickers represent an exciting milestone, they're just one component of The Press Club's broader educational mission. Through detailed blog articles, step-by-step tutorials, product innovations designed with education in mind, and ongoing community engagement, we continue supporting hash makers at every skill level.
Our fundamental goal remains unchanged: empowering people to create their own high-quality medicine at home through accessible solventless techniques. Whether someone is pressing their first gram of rosin or perfecting advanced bubble hash techniques, we're committed to providing the knowledge and tools needed for success.
Join the Celebration
The 2025 Box Brown sticker series will be available exclusively through The Press Club on 710, combining limited availability with maximum impact. These aren't just collectibles, they're educational tools, conversation starters, and celebrations of the art and science that define solventless extraction.
Follow @boxbrown, stay tuned for the sticker drop, and keep spreading the hash gospel.
Happy 710!
