Avian Alia
I’m known for different things in different spaces. Back home, a singer. In school, a strong writer. In the streets, a rapper. I’m most proud of my willingness to pursue the unknown. There’s something to be said about a person willing to invest so much into uncertainty, and I am her. I do my own thing and appreciate those who gravitate toward it. I’m not concerned with fitting in.
It's always Island Time at The Source!
Don't forget to prepare for the show by picking up a bag of Island Time. You'll feel irie in no time!


One Love: Giving Back to the Culture
It's undeniable. Bob Marley did so much to destigmatize and normalize cannabis while embodying messages of peace and love. That's why this February The Source's monthly Tip Match fundraiser will benefit The Bob Marley Foundation. On Friday, February 21st, The Source will match all tips given to our badass budtenders and donate them to the foundation to further Marley's message.


The Bob Marley Foundation
Bob Marley's profound compassion for vulnerable and marginalized people transcended all boundaries of race, age, and faith - a commitment reflected both in his stirring lyrics and throughout his life's work. This dedication to uplifting humanity has inspired his family to carry forward his legacy, not only through his timeless music but by embodying his spirit of active compassion and service to others.
