SWFL STORYTELLERS INVITES AUDIENCES TO INTO THE WORLD OF TATTOO CULTURE

February 14, 2018 – Fort Myers, FL – Think ink! On Thursday, March 15th, Tattoo Tales presents real-life tattoo stories from SWFL locals ranging in age from 20s – 60s, including The Young Dead frontwoman and Love Your Rebellion founder Angela Page. The Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center is located at 2301 First St. in the historic downtown Fort Myers River District.
 
Our growth and evolution as individuals and as a society hinge on learning from our experiences. Join news-press.com and The News-Press for a night of stories about lessons learned the easy way and the adventurous way. In this edition of Storytellers, audiences will be invited into the subcultural world of tattooing. Experience getting a tattoo without ever putting a needle to your skin!
 
Getting a tattoo is trendy again, and behind every tattoo there’s a good story, whether it was the experience of getting one for the first time, reflecting on the meaning behind the art, the place on the body the tattoo ended up, or how Mom and Dad reacted the first time they saw that skull and bones tattoo. In this Southwest Florida Storytellers, participants will paint a picture of the tattoo scene.
 
Each storyteller will offer their own accounts of being a person with tattoos. One storyteller, Angela Page, is the frontwoman of local punk band, the Young Dead, and the founder of the arts and activist collective, Love Your Rebellion. Angela Page and other special guest storytellers will give audiences a glimpse at their tattoo tale.
