LIVE \‘liv\ v: To pursue a positive, satisfying existence; to enjoy life.


We are set to host our fourth annual LIVE event on Saturday November 5th, 2016. LIVE is a family friendly event based around the arts to support those in need. In our previous years, we’ve centered the event around those living with cancer. This year, we experienced a great loss, as one of our long time artists and close friend, Steve Martin, suddenly passed away. He left behind his beloved wife and five children and a huge void in our shop. This year, we’ve chosen to honor his legacy, by raising money to go into a fund for his children, which we are calling the Steve Martin Fund.


For the fourth year in a row, we will host the LIVE event in Cummins Station. From Noon to 9pm, Black 13 artists will tattoo pre-designed art at set prices on a first come, first served basis with one hundred percent of the proceeds going into the Steve Martin Fund. We’ve been fortunate enough to raise over $40,000 in the past three years and we’re looking forward to, at the very least, meeting our highest record of $15,000 reached in 2015. Along with tattooing, we will have a silent auction with some items available to be bid on online Steve’s passing left a huge hole, not just in our shop as an artist, but in our lives as a friend. We would like to give back to his family for all the years, friendship, laughs, and good memories he gave to us.
