The Story of the Billboards, and where we are today.
The Billboard Project of Have A Gay Day Inc started in 2022 when the founder of Have A Gay Day went to a local school board meeting and listened to parents speak against kids for four hours. Hate, and more hate and it felt like it was never going to end. Many thoughts went through his mind and in the face of so much hate the thought came to mind of something kind. Why not send messaging to the trans community of kindness and love. So, a partnership was made with a trans artist, a supportive billboard company, PFLAG National, and a community of Have A Gay Day Inc. In 2022 and 2023 over 700 digital billboards rotated millions of times across the USA including airports and even times square in New York. Messaging may seem so small but in some spaces the messaging created hopes, and love, and stories of change. In the middle of so many laws against the trans community this was different. We do not share the locations of the billboards for their safety and for our community safety but we try to create an annual fundraiser and rotate billboards for months at a time through over 2,000 locations. We also are always looking for partners in this work. If you have any questions, please let us know.
By submitting digital pieces of art to Have a Gay Day Inc, you grant permission for their use on billboards. The designs should be inclusive, also not all submissions may be chosen. Have a Gay Day Inc does not claim ownership of the designs. Submitted designs may be posted on social media, tagged, thanked, and promoted. Please note that there is currently no program in place to pay for used designs. We will not re-produce your designs, resize your designs, sell your designs. If there is a news story we may submit your digital designs to be included in the write up. If your design is used, we will contact you and make you aware.
