The Met's Baseball Portraits
A live portrait activation at Mets House in NYC — artists drawing custom portraits on baseballs, handed directly to fans.
The Activation
At Mets House in NYC, fans sat with artists who illustrated their portraits directly onto official baseballs. In just a few minutes, a classic piece of sports memorabilia became a personal keepsake. The drawing process unfolded live, with people gathering around to watch each portrait come to life.
The Results
Every fan walked away holding something they'd never seen before — their own face, drawn in ink, on a baseball.
Not a bobblehead. Not a foam finger. A portrait. Rendered in minutes by a real artist, right in front of them.
People held them up. They photographed them. They showed strangers. A few looked genuinely stunned that a baseball, the most familiar object in the sport, could suddenly feel so personal.
