For our latest mission, we created a custom-built set that allowed random New Yorkers to instantly deliver a Hallmark holiday card and light up someone’s holiday. Participants were surprised as Christmas lights lit up the plaza and their message was displayed on a 30-foot wide screen above.

This project is a collaboration with Hallmark, who provided us with an assortment of Hallmark Signature Cards for the project.
