Happy Munkey Co-Founder Ramon Reyes: 'From Legacy to Legal'

As a young man, Ramon Reyes travelled to Amsterdam to visit the famous cannabis cafes. While exploring the Dutch city's many cultural offerings, Reyes was moved by the art work of Vincent Van Gogh. His experiences on this trip inspired the creation of New York City's Happy Munkey, a cannabis lifestyle brand that has successfully made the transition from 'Legacy to Legal" markets, providing its members an entrance to the New York cannabis culture through its many events, media and merchandise. These are heady times for Happy Munkey, and for the partners who started it. Reyes and co-founder Vladimir Bautista have more than 20 years in the legacy cannabis scene. Their collaboration started when the two began organizing underground ‘speakeasy events’ that combined music, marijuana and good vibes. The hip canna brand's latest happening promises to be a 'one-of-a-kind" cannabis experience, as Happy Munkey mixes marijuana, music and art with two exclusive 'After Hours' @ Immersive Van Gogh on August 11th and August 18th 2021. Ramon encourages viewers to "Buy the ticket and enjoy the ride" -- indulging in the special after hours experience of seeing the Immersive Van Gogh exhibition from a higher perspective, all in keeping with the brand's motto: "You know you want to choose Happy!"
