On this week's episode of Always Making we're joined by Mason Atlas, a local tattoo artist and owner of The Hive SLC Tattoo & Aftercare. He actually contacted us, not so he can share his tattoo art, but to highlight a junior program he created to help up-and-coming local artists. Being modest about his 25 years of experience in the tattooing world, we dive into the conversation and discover what inspired him to build this program and help other artists find their voice.
This is the fifth year Mason has run this program, and this year the participants will have their pieces highlighted in the Urban Art Gallery from November 5th to December 1st. The Junior Program Nesting Doll Show will by held at the gallery on Friday, November 8th from 6 to 9 pm if you want to meet the junior artists and see their work!
