Second Annual Isle Of Wight Tattoo Convention Heading To Quay Arts

The second instalment of the Isle of Wight Tattoo Convention is heading to Newport's Quay Arts next month.

Organised by Filip Pasieka and Tom Wharton, the two-day event will take place over the weekend of October 14 and 15.

Last year's inaugural event saw the Island represented by Tom's Newport based Boy Wonder Tattoos, The Alchemy Club in Cowes and Newport's Raven Skin.

This year will once again see an eclectic mix of local and nationally acclaimed artists in action.

Co-founder, Filip Pasieka, told Isle of Wight Radio:

"I am currently working at my shop Opium Tattoo Gallery in Surrey. From October though, I will be moving permanently to Boy Wonder Tattoos in Newport.

"Together with Tom Wharton (owner of Boy Wonder) we decided to organise the Isle of Wight Tattoo Convention last year.

"After great successes last year we are back bigger and better this October!"

Tickets for this year's event can be purchased online.
