commonly asked questions

 
 
  • Yes, photography experiences will always be a part of The Confetti Project, but we don’t have a studio currently! Now, it will be within the context of a pop-up. That means when we debut pop-up tickets, there will be a limited number of available slots for photo experiences. We give first access to our Patreon community (coming soon) and newsletter subscribers before it's open to the public. We aim to produce a social impact campaign at each pop-up where we select important stories that we believe need to be highlighted. We have a rolling story submission form at the top of this page where we read each story that comes in and decide if, when and where we can make a photo experience out of it.

  • The Confetti Project is an experiential creative house that redefines celebration as a playful outlet for adults to reflect and express what it feels like to be alive through confetti and storytelling. We focus on mindset and experiences that transform our deeper human experiences into beauty and meaning. As a result, we provide an outlet to celebrate life by de-stigmatizing mental health and play for adults.

  • We are not a photo-op solely for social media feeds. We create a sacred, multi-sensory space that honors each participant and their story. Our approach is messy, organic and all about finding real human moments amidst a subject expressing themselves in pounds of confetti. If you are looking for a more traditional photo shoot with confetti we recommend researching your local photographers and purchasing confetti by the pound online.

  • Confetti = worldwide symbol of celebration = a type of social play that has transformative effects, life-enhancing properties. When utilized as an intentional daily practice, it can be an outlet to release and transform pressure, stress, shame, tension, feeling. Ultimately, the practice of play - through celebration - can help dissolve heaviness, manage stress, cope with change and navigate uncertainty. Ultimately, confetti is a catalyst for a play state that can bring us into FLOW: the complete immersion in an activity that leads to creative thinking, happiness and growth.

  • Here, celebration is: slowing down enough to discover the beauty and meaning of our everyday experiences. It is a practice and mindset in how to view, live and approach life. The celebration tool that we primarily study is confetti. We use it as a way to help adults express themselves with play. At the heart of our work is the belief that life is meant to be celebrated and that being alive is the celebration.

  • You can join our Patreon community (coming soon). We also have a rolling story submission form open to everyone at the top of this page. We will be sharing our first pop-up campaign soon with various ways of participating!

  • Our focus is to provide an outlet for play-deprived adults that may feel stuck, overwhelmed or stressed but we understand that bonding with children through play is important too. The ideal age group to benefit from our services are ages 14+. While not our target demographic, children have participated in the past and we are open to it depending on the context.

  • We do! Our goal is to have long, fruitful partnerships with brands that are mission-driven and are actively contributing to de-stigmatizing mental health. Partnerships primarily revolve around pop-up concepts - with the main areas for collaboration being: pop-up sponsorship and space hosting. We also provide immersive, experiential workshops for innovative companies. If you or your company are interested in a partnership, please fill out the form on this page or e-mail us at: hi@theconfettiproject.com and we will get back to you if it’s a good fit. We aim to expand our partnerships into: research and non-profit partners in hopes of fundraising for important causes serving de-stigmatized and underrepresented communities.
