Open Call: Westmoreland Museum Looking For Photos Of Tattoos

No, all these pictures will not be displayed in the gallery-but it's still a great opportunity to display this honest personal and often deeply creative artform.

Do you have a tattoo? Would you like to share its design with others?

In September, the Westmoreland Museum of American Art will host the exhibition Tattoo Witness of tattoo photographs by Pittsburgh artist Mark Perrott. We would like also like to show pictures of your tattoos in a special section of the exhibition.

Please send us a photo of your tattoo(s) and your story about why or where you got it to tattoowitness@gmail.com. If you prefer not to send via email, bring a photo of your tattoo (no larger than 8x10 inches) to the Museum or send it via postal mail to:

Westmoreland Museum of American Art
Tattoo Witness Photos
221 N. Main Street
Greensburg, PA 15601

Submission deadline: September 1, 2011
Photos chosen will also appear on our Facebook page.
