The Happiness Project

The Happiness Project was a crowd-sourced, interactive installation that took place in different locations throughout the Bay Area.

Through a series of posters, flyers, online ads, and social media, the public was asked to contribute works of art, words of encouragement, and positive affirmations to make others happy.

Participants submitted via an online form at thehappinessprojectsf.com or by using a hashtag on Instagram or Twitter.

Upon submission of photos or written short messages, those who chose to give their email address were invited to a site-specific projection gathering.  They saw their words or art projected on a massive screen. Submissions were screened to ensure the content fit with the mission of the project.

The Happiness Project launched in the summer of 2019 and ran in select locations.

The happiness project sought to bring others together to share simple, everyday joy and, if only for a moment, make the day a little brighter and spark unexpected magic.
