Ah-MAY-zing!
This month we connected with community new and old. I cannot believe it will be 9 years of PMA Tattoo this October. As a shop we have always been committed to community. We started with just my personal savings in just 11 days. I would have never believed how much we could grow, cannot wait to share what has happened in this month alone…
The 3rd annual Tats for Cats was a great success thanks to everyone’s efforts. This month we have raised over $6,000 (that’s more money than we started the original shop with haha) for Oakland TNR along with our business neighbors The Parkway Theater, Abjuration Brewing, Safari Eats, Headtriiip Glass, Shadobeni, Helen’s Pupusa’s & Antojitos, DJ Johnny Marco and more <3 And our very own, Sara Eve Rivera, designed the new OAKLND TNR LOGO! -very very excited for this!
Laura Ditka Visionary Award. Beyond our cat flash fundraiser, this month continues to warm our hearts. Our shop was recognized, along with many talented tattooers from Pittsburgh, at PAAR’s Teal Ball with the Laura Ditka Visionary Award. After hearing about the services, support and education provided by PAAR makes us even more excited for this year's Ink for Impact. We are so excited to participate this upcoming October, stay tuned for more news, designs and information :D

Since the beginning of the year we have contributed to and gave to over 10 non-profit and community efforts. From Tree PGH, to PAAR to Oakland TNR and beyond. We have even more in works so stay tuned…
