We spend hours researching, curating and collaborating with local partners, thought leaders and experts to authentically center local perspectives and community voices. We care about the details, and they’re embedded in everything we do.

In addition to prioritizing Black and BIPOC vendors, partners and guides throughout our weekend experiences, we fully center our programming on the history, culture and progress of Black and Brown communities. Seeing our communities move forward is the heart of everything we do.

Each year, we host a weekend experience fully representative of a specific community. We believe that interacting with contextualized history, engaging with local talent and culture, and connecting with community leaders and heroes creates the necessary spark to begin seeing community extend beyond geographical lines.

Activating long-term engagement, impact and action is what we do. We intentionally design weekends to build sustained connectivity between attendees, local nonprofit partners, and initiatives, because that’s where the real work begins.
