Hello Creatures, Beings, Outsiders, and Things in-between.

With the bold dismissal of our right on June 24th, in regards to our bodies, we decided to, and have held a fundraiser for 3 organizations:

Midwest Access Coalition - https://www.midwestaccesscoalition.org

Western Pennsylvania - https://www.wpafundforchoice.org

Plan C -https://www.plancpills.org

The community came to support these orgs, and our goal of reaching $3,000 overall has been successful. All proceeds went directly to each organization of clients choice. Each organization is linked above, so go check them out!

It’s lovely, encouraging, and humbling to see that this goal was met. Seeing such an abundance of courage and support for our united community  was shown , that we will be hosting another fundraiser in the future!

We want to thank everyone who came, who messaged us, who emailed us, for supporting the organizations, for being cool and getting a tattoo, and for sharing your stories.

So again, everyone, thank you~

New things happening!

Firstly, we are very sad to announce that Christianne will be leaving us at the end of the month to open her own private studio. The positive is that she will only be right up the street from us on Liberty Ave!

Next we have a new artist starting part time and a new shop assistant ! Look for posts about them soon. They are both very cool chill humans and for sure a good fit with us. We are still looking for one more full time artist!

Lastly we have been slowly renovating to now showcase art and goods for sale in the front of the shop! Renovations should be done soon! Look out for local artist goods and work there!

WALK-INS

Hey! We are taking walk-ins now! But because of covid still being a concern we are doing TEXT-INs. Text us for walk in availability and well get back to you on the spot. Our Text number is 412-541-6006.

We’re open!

It seems like this has taken a very long time. The building process was hard and unexpected. For those of you who know the details of this , it was wild. But now we’re all laughing about it.

There is still a lot to do; small details like some floor trim, window graphics etc. But we’re all in and functioning again! Kati’s apprentice , Kait, has a fully built space of her own and is about to start tattooing !
