It's May Day and we have a lot of great things on the horizon.

In May, we'll welcome our dear friend TIHOTI from May 24-30. It is a great time when TIHOTI comes to town, and we always enjoy visiting with his clients, distinguished friends and cultural practitioners.

In June, we'll host Oregon-based artist Jen Godfrey who, like Tihoti, is a recurring guest artist. Jen has built up her own local clientele over the last 3 years and will book quickly. Also, we're pleased to welcome Eric Schreiner, who comes to The Collective with his authentic handpoke tattoo method.

Friday the 13th only comes around every so often, and we love to host Flash Days! Artists are preparing their flash art, and we'll have 9 artists lined up to support the day. In addition, Brett will be manning the laser tattoo removal machine, and taking new clients all day. Friday June 13th is the day, and tickets go on sale May 16th.

Lau is returning. One of the most popular guests we have hosted, Lau has received clearance to come work full-time and will begin seeing clients on July 21st. We just built a starter page for her, and added her to our Artists' page so that you can get to know her. You will also see some posts about her arrival. Sea Creatures!!

The MURAL design is IMMINENT -- you're going to love it!!
