Five Star Gift Ideas

That's great to hear! Here are a few gift ideas for your dad who likes experimental/avant-garde:

1. A membership to a local experimental art museum or gallery. This could be a great way for your dad to explore new and exciting art forms, and also give him the opportunity to meet and network with other like-minded individuals.

2. An album by an experimental musician or group. You could choose something like Radiohead's "Kid A" or Bjork's "Biophilia," both of which are examples of experimental music that your dad may enjoy.

3. A book by an avant-garde author, such as William S. Burroughs or Hunter S. Thompson. This could be a great way for your dad to explore the world of experimental writing and storytelling, and may provide him with new ideas and inspiration.

4. An experimental cooking class or workshop. If your dad enjoys cooking or trying new foods, this could be a fun and hands-on way for him to explore experimental cooking techniques and flavors.

5. A modern art piece for his home or office. If your dad enjoys contemporary art, consider gifting him a piece from a local artist or online gallery that specializes in modern or avant-garde art. This could be a great way to support emerging artists while also giving your dad a unique and personalized gift.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.

“I wanted a keepsake to give to my father for his birthday as he has terminal cancer. He was delighted by his gift. The process of ordering was easy and delivery was prompt. A great gift idea.”
