How it works

For this event, our tattoo art team will travel will all the necessary supplies to your office or event location. We are located in the San Francisco Bay Area and will travel within and around the Bay Area.

Each attendee will receive a kit composed of professional quality materials used in traditional illustration and design. The class starts with an introduction to the materials and guidance on station set up. Walking attendees through each step, the instructor ensures participants feel confident using the materials to draw and ink their chosen design. From there, the class will trace and then ink their chosen design. Each participant will leave with a beautiful handprinted masterpiece.

For a successful event, we'll need a well lit space and enough room for each participant to comfortably move their arms without bumping. There also needs to be a space for the instructor and parking availability for loading and unloading. We will be on location one hour early to set up, and will need someone to assist in set up and clean up. We will bring all the materials, but please have access to somewhere we can fill up and dump the water glasses. We will also need a trash can for clean up.
