Lower Blue Mountains Charity Tattoo Show to raise funds for Gateway Family Services
Original Source - Penrith Press
TATTOO enthusiast Adam Thomas is using one of his passions to create more positivity in the Lower Blue Mountains.
He is the driving force behind the Lower Blue Mountains Charity Tattoo Show at the Blaxland Tavern on Saturday.
Mr Thomas, of Glenbrook, said the event would raise money for Gateway Family Services at East Blaxland.
“Gateway Family Services help lots of people in the Blaxland area,” he said.
“I’m a single parent and they’ve helped me get back on my feet.”
Mr Thomas previously lived in Byron Bay and said organising the event was inspired by a charity tattoo show based there.
Tavern licensee Stephen Kiely said he agreed to host the show to put something back into the community.
“I was a youth worker before I got into this industry,” he said.
“I know how hard it is to get the proper support.”
The tavern will contribute 10 per cent of bar takings to the fundraiser. There will be local bands and tattoo judging.
Businesses supporting the show include Cheeky Azz tattoo shop at Blaxland, Protat and sponsor Carmart in Penrith.
* WHAT: Lower Blue Mountains Charity Tattoo Show
* WHERE: Blaxland Tavern
* WHEN: Saturday from 12.30pm
* ENTRY: $5
