• Chips & Salsa: Enjoy complimentary snacks while you paint, courtesy of Ta-Co!
• Optional Art Swap: If you’re nervous about your skills, no worries! Our artists can help finish your piece, or you can exchange artwork with someone else in the group for a fun and collaborative experience.
🍹 Optional Drink Ticket ($20):
• Enjoy two drinks (choose between beer or margaritas) provided by Ta-Co, a new local hotspot, to make your evening even more relaxing and fun. This event is all about cutting loose, having fun, and learning to love something you create—not just for its beauty and aesthetics, but because it was made with pure joy and the support of a team of kind, talented tattoo artists. Our goal is to help you create art for the joy of play, and we promise you’ll leave with an image you love and memories filled with laughter.
Every time we host one of these events, we laugh endlessly—it’s impossible not to! We believe joy is something everyone deserves more of, and we’re here to deliver that in the most fun, hilarious, supportive, and inclusive way possible.
Our team is a vibrant, diverse group made up of mostly female artists, flamboyant dressers, queer folks, LGBTQIA+ allies, outcasts, black sheep, neurodivergent creators (ADHD, autism, social anxiety—we see you!), and people who are truly made of magic. We welcome EVERYONE who wants to paint, laugh, and party with us.
Plus, we’re here for more than just painting! Got tattoo questions or need a consultation? This is the perfect chance to chat with our artists and get all your questions answered in a relaxed and fun setting. We’ll be set up in our usual spot at the mall. Upstairs just about a “block” south of the foodcourt on the East side. Across from Saved Soles shoe store.
This night is about creating joy, building connections, and making art together. Don’t miss the opportunity to join our magical, supportive community—we can’t wait to see you there!
