Where it started

Culture Weekend NY

Before HHAYO had a name, the blueprint was being built in real rooms with real people.

Our founder Courtney "Snaps NYC" Nelson was part of building Culture Weekend NY, alongside Rel Carter and Devin L. White,  a gathering that brought artists, executives, therapists and organizers from across the country, into the same conversation. Mind. Body. Money. Community. Culture. It worked there first.

This weekend laid the early groundwork for the founding of Hip-Hop, Are You OK?  the same blueprint, now a movement.

Panels on mental health. Wellness mornings. Industry conversations after dark. The same DNA you'll find in every HHAYO event today.
