Happiness Reflected: Creative Expressions Collection, Vol. 3
Happiness Reflected is back with volume three, a collection of original creative works from our campus community that Days of Action has curated intentionally for Happiness Day.
This collection is available in a variety of formats:
- View posters of select art pieces at all U of A Libraries
- Read the chapbook. Immerse yourself in the collection, reflect on the questions throughout to engage with your own experience of happiness, and consider the artist’s intention to deepen your connection to the work.

Cultivating Happiness: Insights from Mind, Brain, and Beyond: March 21
Is happiness something we can actively seek? Can it last, and do we have control over it?
This workshop delves into these fundamental questions, offering a fresh perspective on the intricate relationship between the mind and brain. We'll explore the mind as a dynamic system, constantly shaped by sensory experiences and mental processes spanning the present, past and future.
Happiness is not something ready-made. It comes from your own actions.
