About

WHAT is The Levity Project?

The Levity Project is a social movement creating change through public acts of play, laughter, and celebration.  The mission of The Levity Project is to help decrease the spirit of negativity, stress, and fatigue in our society by infusing public spaces with a lighter and more buoyant energy.   

The Levity Project is a movement that encourages everyone who participates and observes the events to see themselves as an agent of change in our world. Our goal is to create a global community in which people come together to create an upward spiral of global positive social change.

WHERE do The Levity Project events take place?

Everywhere. Official events with The Levity Project are put on by The Levity Project Team in cities around North America.  You can go to our “Upcoming Events” page on The Levity Project website to see where we will be next or to request that we come to your city or town.

Online. The Levity Project is the creator of the Micro-Movement concept in which people all over the world take part in an event with The Levity Project by themselves, video tape it, then send us the video.  We create a single video with all of The Levity Project Players in it, and the end result is a social movement that takes place online with no time or location barriers.   The idea behind the micro-movement is that what starts with one can touch many.

At your event or organization. 
The Levity Project works with organizations, events, conferences and corporations to create an event that will bring an infusion of lightness, fun, and joy to the experience.  The Levity Project can bring a buzz of attention and energy to an event, as well as creating a dynamic experience that will make your event memorable.


WHO is The Levity Project?

The Levity Project is a community of people that believe social change in possible and that it starts with each one of us.  The Levity Project believes that we are all agents of social change able to make a difference in the world simply by how we choose to approach each day in our personal and professional lives.  When you take part in a Levity Project event or sign up on our website you become one of The Levity Project Players.

The Levity Project Team has three members who design and stage the events, coordinate with organizations, and work with communities to make the events possible.

Katie West ~ The Founder and Director of The Levity Project

Ina Lukas ~ Operations Manager

Lance Ekum ~ Communications Manager

WHY is The Levity Project doing what it does?

The goal is to bring people together who see themselves as agents of change toward creating an upward spiral of positivity in our world.  We want to create a deeper understanding that joy, play, laughter, and freedom are integral to individual and collective success.

Our mission is to shift the paradigm of negativity, stress, and pessimism in our society to one of play, laughter and celebration.  We believe it’s our own inner happiness, collectively celebrated, that has the ability to create a global shift.

The Levity Project believes that each person is an agent of change and when we awaken to our power in this way, we can make collective social change a reality.

Hi Ina,

What a huge pleasure it was to meet you at the LYL meeting in Laguna Beach. You are such a bright ray of sunshine! After sharing with us about the Levity Project, I felt like this so resonated within me … needed to come online and connect as well.

So looking forward to connecting with you in the future.

Love & Laughter,
Therese Freeman
