Tattooing for Beginners with Stabalisim | July
WORKSHOP | $250 // $300 | 18+ | Ever wanted to learn the art of tattooing? Junior High resident artist JJ wants to show you the ropes! In this workshop we’re disrupting abusive tattoo apprenticeship traditions and breaking down the culture of gatekeeping in tattooing by allowing interested artists to experiment on fake skin.
When you purchase a ticket all supplies are included, you get to keep stencil with your designs, your fake skin, and a few more single use items! Pay $250 if you have your own tattoo machine, pay $300 if you want to borrow a machine for the workshop.
Class prep: Bring a few (2-5) designs that you drew or found online that you want to tattoo at the class. Bring the designs on printer paper, your phone/iPad, or whatever you have access to! We start by going over the drawing and stencil process then JJ will demonstrate setting up a tattoo machine and tattooing on fake skin. JJ will have a station for each attendee and will guide you through the whole tattooing process. Hopefully you’ll be able to fill your whole sheet of fake skin!
