Artists and apprentices can join the amazing talent gathering together virtually for one goal, to use these unique times and multimedia to inspire each other and learn about the latest tools of the trade. Interactive workshops include the standards of Seminars, Workshops, discussion panels, and critiques, but also new interactive activities such as virtual group draws. Register for FREE here!
Visitors can browse through the virtual convention artists to discover new tattooers, and beam directly into their studios! Of course you will be able to browse their portfolios, link to their amazing merchandise and original paintings, and send in a tattoo consultation (for the real world!), but for the three days you will be able to beam into the artists workstations, be amazed at their setups, and see them in action!
Tattoo collectors and the curious can beam into the various "stage" activities for the public throughout the event. Interviews with tattoo media personalities Tony Romel of Tattoo Society, Jake Meeks of the Fireside Tattoo Network, product demos, and other events will take place on the main stage. To close out the event, attendees can either join in the drunk critique, or simply enjoy the insanity (and learn a bit!).
The team behind VTC has lived and breathed tattoos, education, and produced many of the tattoo worlds most memoriable events in the last two decades in a variety of unique wonderful locations. Attracting amazing artists, and those who want to be amazing, is how we have built the artist communities for Reinventing the Tattoo, and TattooNOW for decades. We have webcast these events for over a decade, helping artists, collectors, and the curious from all over the world beam into events far and wide from the comfort of their own home (or on the car ride!). Given the state of the world, we are excited to scale up and go all in and produce virtual tattoo conferences and conventions, starting with May 26th - 27th.

It is fun to watch one person streaming online, but to be able to beam into a half dozen artists is a party! Not only do attendees get to watch live tatooing and art, but tools allow them to connect to other like minded people.
Stage events translate well digitally, with the added ability to acess guests that aren't able to travel half way around the world. Group discussions about important topics are always well attended and received.
Virtual group activities are so much fun. Headliners will bounce inbetween art groups to answer questions, offer suggestions, and help share the lessons tattooing has taught them about life, the universe, and everything.
Artists walk through the latest tools, technologies, and gadgets. Of course, links and special offers are easily accessable.
After hours activities can still be productive! Drunk Critiques, painting jams, and just plain old group hangouts help people learn about what is going on in other parts of the world and cultures!
