Coolmud LaunchStart time where you are: 05:00 am UTC

Sisters Linnea and Erika Lehmkuhl are launching their project “Coolmud” in honor of their father, Jack, with a special pre-order taking place December 3rd through the 15th.

After Jack was diagnosed with FTD in 2022 (having shown symptoms since 2015), his family knew he needed a creative outlet to express his “new language”, so they signed him up for art classes where he works in different mediums like charcoal portraits and acrylic landscapes. While Jack’s abilities have shifted over the progress of the disease, his family has come to appreciate his art event more in this stage of their FTD journey.

Coolmud is their way of sharing Jack’s art with the rest of the world by putting it on t-shirts. These t-shirts not only spread FTD awareness but also help fight this disease as 50% of the proceeds will be donated to advance AFTD’s mission. Coolmud, born from a German mispronunciation, a license plate, a password, is now, a tribute and you can get involved here: https://www.coolmudproject.com/
