Each artist responded to a common theme of THE GHOST IN THE MACHINE. It remains to be seen whether these artists will lean toward philosophical, literal or paranormal interpretations of the theme but one thing is certain: you really should be here in person to find out! So come on down, check out our revamped storefront and partake in a night of pints and prints with The Mandate Press and Cathedral Tattoo Company. Print editions of each piece will be limited to 60 and will go on sale online at 6:00 PM that evening and show attendees can grab one at a discount that night only.Once they’re gone, they’re gone.
11×17 prints $25 online / $20 at show
8×10 prints $20. online / $15. at show
