Massive Collection Of Preserved Tattoos To Be Displayed In Vegas
New tattoo association offers members ability to preserve tattoos post mortem
CLEVELAND, Sept. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Self-expression via tattooing is a well-established art form and for hundreds of years, people have been trying to preserve their tattoos. The National Association for the Preservation of Skin Art (NAPSA), a new association that advocates for and supports the necessities and concerns of tattoo enthusiasts, has legitimized the practice of preserving skin art on a wide scale with the ability to pass it on to loved ones. NAPSA will officially kick-off in Las Vegas during The Biggest Tattoo Show on Earth in Las Vegas on September 18, 2015. Eighteen pieces of art will be on display at the NAPSA pavilion.
"Nearly all tattoos represent a story," explains Charles Hamm, chairman of the board and NAPSA executive director. "We've met so many people through the years – from military personnel to firefighters, physicians, teachers and artists that have shared their personal stories with us. When you factor in that deep connection, plus the fact that many people have thousands of dollars worth of art on their personal canvas, it's a natural next step to want to explore ways to preserve the art and the stories for loved ones. Which is exactly what we have done."
NAPSA spent the past year perfecting its proprietary method of art preservation and fine-tuning all its member benefits. There's no cost to register at SaveMyInk.com and create a user profile, which allows users to upload images of art, like and comment on others' imagery, save original content, locate artists and more. To join NAPSA, the initiation fee is $115, plus yearly dues of $60 (dues cover preservation of one tattoo; each additional tattoo is an additional $100 one time initiation fee depending on size). Added member benefits include: support studio owners with any issues surrounding opening shops, support artists and any copyright challenges and lobbying against any obstacles towards preservation.
NAPSA will officially launch on September 18, 2015 at The Biggest Tattoo Show on Earth in Las Vegas. To learn more, visit SaveMyInk.com. Connect with NAPSA: Facebook. Twitter. Instagram. Website. Tumblr. YouTube. Pinterest.
