Game of Shrooms is a one day, once a year world-wide art N seek event! Artists from all over the world create original works and hide the mushroom themed works in public spaces, give hints on Instagram, or not) for others to find AND KEEP! Finders and artists are encouraged to post their info, previews and findings using the hashtag #gameofshrooms
Last year thousands across the world participated in their local areas.
Game of Shrooms is like an Easter Egg Hunt for art and celebrates the spirit of unexpected surprises. In 2019 and the following years, artists and gatherers from Hong Kong, Berlin, Japan, the UK, India, Russia, Switzerland, the US, Canada, and many more participated in the world-wide event, creating a world-wide non-religious, no cost, personally interactive “art show” of making and sharing, suspense and freakin' wonder.
IMPORTANT!: Practice Safe Shroom Hunting!:
Rock Paper Scissors if two people find the same shroom at the same time. Winner gets the Shroom!
Please Leave No Trace, do not plant in parks, on trees, on trails or in protected areas. The idea is nature (mushrooms) invading human space, not the other way around.
Feel free to show previews of art being made for the event! And on Instagram, using the hashtag #gameofshrooms
#yegshroomdrop.

FAQ:
Can anyone participate?
Yes, And of all ages and abilities. So long as you are not a jerk. And ANYONE can hunt for mushrooms, too.
Does it have to be a mushroom themed piece of art?
That's the idea. mushrooms are varied though!
Can I stick stickers all over the place?
No, The idea is that other people can find, collect and keep your art. Stickers are fun, but we don't encourage harming properly. See the above How to for tips!
What if no one finds my art?
They probably will! Especially if given clues. But it's your responsibility to go back and grab the hidden art if they don't. Leave no trace, be a mushroom ninja. We encourage that you leave clues and tips to friends/fans before the event! And hide near landmarks. Don't make it too hard to find. Or too easy! some of the best hiding spots are in plain site!
Can I hide my artisanal product, coupon, etc?
Nah. That’s not what this is about. Take a day off from that instead and pause the hustle and create a one of a kind piece of art and give it away. I promise you will have more fun that way. K?
