Coming up April 17th – 19th is The Electric City Tattoo Convention in Scranton, Pennsylvania!  Host Electric City Tattoo Gallery has really put together a great show that won’t disappoint.

Artists

You can check out the list of artists here:  http://electriccitytattooconvention.com/artists/.  Each artist manages his/her own appointments….make sure to set something up before time runs out!

Events and Entertainment

What would a show be without great entertainment?  Don’t miss the Friday’s after party at the Backyard Alehouse.  Saturday’s will be at the Bog.

There will also be tattoo contests every day, with most on Saturday and Sunday, and the contests are free to enter.  There will be trophies for the artists and prizes for those with the tattoos for Best Sleeve, Best Asian Art Influenced Tattoo, and Best Realism Within a Tattoo, to name a few.

Tattoos won’t be the only contests, though.  Even if your ink doesn’t take the top prize, you may be able to eat your way to glory with the pie eating contest or be the top twister in the hula hoop contest.

Organizers have set up a series a acoustic artists such as Tom Graham and Mike from After the Fall, and The Whiskey Kittens from Philly will be performing burlesque.
