"Walk-in Wednesday" is Resuming
Please observe the following rules as we transition back into our normal routine while maintaining safety for all.
Our WinW are usually busy, & with the number of people calling, we expect them to be. Please keep that in mind & plan accordingly.
You will NOT be allowed to wait inside the studio for your time slot.
You may wait off-premises, in your vehicle, or at our outdoor seating.
Please limit guests, no more than 1 guest or family member per client getting work inside, if you must have company.
We will have a waiting list. It is 1st come 1st serve and we can’t write your name in over the phone.
We open at 12pm and there’s often a line at the door early.
If you want to make sure we can get you in that day come early to sign in!
You may come and sign in & then leave, we will call you when there is 30 mins to your opening.
A mask is REQUIRED upon entry of the building and must be worn throughout the procedure (we are required as well).
Please wash your hands in our touch-free facilities upon arrival & departure.
If you have been exposed or at all sick, do not enter. You will be legally attesting to this on your paperwork.
We will have a cut off time each Wed. (per how the day goes/juice left in our tank) usually 6-8pm.
We love & appreciate your patronage, but please be patient & understanding with what we can take in one day, including the time & staff that is required for our extra cleaning and safety procedures.
If we can’t get you in, please try back the next Wednesday or ask if we can get you in another day. Also, please keep tattoo requests to a ONE HOUR LIMIT, at this time, in order to accommodate more small projects, please respect this request. If you’re not sure how long your idea would take, please email it to us in advance for a quote. It also may be possible to split up the outline and fill-in on 2 separate Weds. Thank you we look forward to working with you!

Let us help you create!
We believe that getting a tattoo should be an enjoyable experience in which both artist and client together produce an artistic representation of self. We strive to provide excellent customer service and to create custom artistic pieces that reflect the personality and tastes of our clients. Our piercer also works hard to provide caring and individual attention to each client and we provide high-quality artistic jewelry options. We also offer weekly art classes for all ages, taught by long time art educator/owner Tricia, which dabble in a variety of artistic mediums including drawing, painting, printmaking, textiles, wood burning, and ceramics. Tricia also offers lively private paint or custom art project parties for any occasion. Click the relevant tab to learn more! --
