ONE DAY LEFT TO BID. The Father's Day Redesign is taking bids for only one more day. All profits go directly to Campaign Against Living Miserably. Speaking on the project, Charlene Chandrasekaran said "Mother's Day card designs are always thoughtful and heartfelt. 'Happy Father's Day, you old twat' or a picture of a pint of beer doesn't quite have that same level of warmth. The Father's Day Redesign is here to shine a light on how we communicate with our father figures, reframing the narrative with positivity and openness." Don't miss out on one-of-a-kind original artworks that are working to redefine Father's Day, one card at a time. Get bidding now.
