Do you have clients in Arizona or surrounding states that you already plan to tattoo while at Sound Sanctuary? (Please select all that apply)
*
Yes, I plan to provide most of my own clientele
Some, but I'll need some help promoting my time there
Not at the moment, but I'll do all my own marketing/inquiry forms to fill my books.
I'll definitely need help promoting my work while there.
If you are an out of state/country artist applying for a guest spot, do you have a place to stay?
Yes, lodging is not a problem.
Still figuring that out, but I will arrange.
I haven't started that part of planning, so I'd appreciate help figuring out where to stay while there.
