JOIN THE TEAM
We’re always looking for new artists to expand our roster. Whether you’re a long time tattooer looking for a new home, or an up and coming artist looking to get your foot in the door, we want to hear from you!
STUDIO PERKS
creative freedom.
We ask a lot of our artists. While it’s not for everyone, it allows us to create an environment in which you can do the art you want, on your terms, and on the type of clients you want to tattoo.
ENVIRONMENT.
Completely modernized studio space in one of Downtown Traverse City’s oldest buildings. Come tattoo in a relaxing urban environment that will get you into the perfect headspace to create.
GOOD BUSINESS.
We’ve taken what we learned from our mentors, and built on it. A modernized take on the traditional artist/shop relationship. Innovations like sliding scales incentivize both artist and studio, so when we’re doing good, you’re doing good.
PIECE OF MIND.
Our industry leading health and safety policy means that you don’t have to worry about getting a client’s cold, or tattoo the late night tourist who’s had ten too many. Relax and create in one of the cleanest studio’s you’ll ever see.
“my style of business isn’t for everybody. But, for the people that it clicks with, it will be the best job they ever had. hands down.”
