Smile for Japan

Smile for Japan

Every time we put together a show we commission a T shirt to remember the event by. This year we thought of all our friends in Japan that couldn’t be with us and those from Japan that did manage to make it to Milan and were in the show, and raised a little smile for them.

We decide to donate the profits to the EGAKU draw for Japan event that our friend Soju Tanaka put together to support the relief effort in Japan. The 2nd event takes place this Sunday, this time in Sunny Dalston, where all the Hipsters live.

There will be some great work buy, all very reasonably priced and for a good cause, so try and make it down if you can.

You can read all about the project here and see our previous post about it here
