When: First Friday in October |
Where: 🌐 Everywhere |
First occurrence: 1999 |
Created by Harvey Ball in 1999 |
||
World Smile Day® was created by Harvey Ball, who claimed to have designed the Smiley Face® in 1963. In reality though, smiley faces are almost as old as human art.
Harvey was concerned about commercialization of his particular Smiley Face®, so he created World Smile Day® to be celebrated from 1999 on. ![]() 😀 Ironically enough, Harvey Ball did grab a lot of the credit for drawing the smiley face. |
