Nashville, TN (December 17, 2015 Press Release) – Black 13 Tattoo Parlor inks pink with their third annual LIVE event held on October 24, 2015, raising $14,500 to support Nashville’s own Women Rock For The Cure (WRFTC). On Tuesday (12/15), the renowned tattoo parlor staff proudly presented a check to Women Rock For The Cure to help fund the organization’s community outreach initiatives including the annual Young Survivors Retreat which helps to connect and support young women diagnosed with breast cancer. WRFTC board members Liz Lee Schullo and Rebekah Lee Beard were on hand to accept the donation.

Black 13’s annual family friendly LIVE event is based around the arts to support those living with cancer. The daylong event features the shop’s talented artists tattooing pre-designed art with 100% percent of the proceeds donated to Women Rock For The Cure. This year the festivities also included music performances by Kyle Andrews, Mr. Steve The Music Man, Elise Davis, Jace Everett, Kylie Rothfield, Caroline Spence and Josh Farrow as well as local goods from Hail Dark Aesthetics, Wild Earth Apothecary, Paisley Red, Music City Glass Works, DonutloverrVintage, Oh Just Dandy and Polar Opposite Vintage.
