It has been beyond an honor to work with the talented and smart kiddos making art at Sto-Rox High School. Our shop’s founder, Sara Eve Rivera, has been coordinating, fundraising and working hands on with students up the street from our shop for over a year now. So much hard work and heart has been put into these works of art! <3 These pieces are quite impressive in size and detail scaling all the way up to 8’x8’!

This last month has shown a lot of big wins for our local kiddos. Not only did they have their first piece on display at the Mckees Rocks Library, but they also were invited to come back for a solo exhibit in the upcoming months! (more info to come) Big shout out to the AACOA, African-American Coalition of Arts, for inviting the students to be a part of the Black History Month exhibit in our local library’s art gallery. This mural was a collaboration with a local black student owned and operated business named 1wayout. This influential clothing brand inspired fellow students to celebrate Black history month’s local theme due to it’s founder, Zay Davis, positive message of self growth and investment.

Not only this, but the kiddos artwork has now begun to be hung up on the walls of the school for students and staff to enjoy! We are overjoyed and so grateful to the lovely staff at the Sto-Rox High School for coordinating their efforts to get these murals into the public eye. We are beyond proud of our High School kiddos, their amazing work and their tenacity!

Seriously stay tuned to see what these amazing students do next! They are an inspiration <3 Thank you for allowing PMA Tattoo to facilitate such a fulfilling community effort <3
