first Tattoo shop in travelers rest sc!!!
Wow, I'm still buzzing about the news! Travelers Rest, SC is about to get its first truly inclusive tattoo parlor, TATTOO SOCIETY, and they're kicking things off with an epic "Travelers Rock Fest" on July 26th! As someone who loves getting new ink, finding a shop that genuinely feels welcoming and safe is so important, and knowing this one is explicitly LGBTQ+ friendly is a game-changer for our community here. It's more than just a tattoo shop; it's a statement. Having a space where artists understand and respect diverse identities makes the whole experience so much better. You want to feel comfortable discussing your ideas and knowing your vision will be brought to life without judgment. I've heard great things already, and I can't wait to see the talent at TATTOO SOCIETY. They're located at 235 Trailblazer Dr, right here in Travelers Rest, SC 29690, making it super accessible for anyone in the area looking for quality artistry. And the "Travelers Rock Fest"? It sounds like it's going to be "The biggest event Travelers Rest has ever seen!" Seriously, mark your calendars for July 26th, from 2 pm to 9 pm. It’s hosted by LEGION and TATTOO SOCIETY at Trailblazer Park. They're even holding a "Tattoo Competition" where you can "show off your tattoos and win a $300 gift card to the tattoo shop!" How cool is that? Registration for the competition starts at 4 pm, with the main event at 6:00 pm. I’m definitely planning to be there to check out some amazing ink and maybe even enter if I'm feeling brave! Beyond the tattoos, this festival is packed with fun. The OCR mentioned so many fantastic local businesses joining in. You can "get your grub on!" with delicious "Caribbean Cuisine" from ISLAND SUN, or treat yourself to something sweet from @MOUNTAINSIDEBAKERYSC. Need a refreshing drink? @TANGYTEASERS will be there with their "delightful tangy teasers." For entertainment, they've got everything from a "magic show!" and "balloon animals!" to "get you're face painted by a mermaid!" from Reedy River MERMAID. Plus, there are "9,000 sqft of waterslides!" and even "massage anyone?" from ReNurture. They're also giving away "free $50 gift certificates" to the shop and offering "$50 OFF gift certificate $150 or more!" if you stop by the shop before the event. This is such a fantastic way to introduce the community to their artists and show off their commitment to creating a vibrant, welcoming space. Even PSINSETT ARMORY, a "Gun and auction house," is sponsoring, which shows the diverse support for this new venture. It’s truly a community effort. I believe this new shop will quickly become a beloved spot in Travelers Rest, not just for fantastic tattoos but for fostering a truly inclusive artistic community. Don't miss out on what promises to be an epic day of art, music, food, and community celebration!
