We’ll have raffles including original artwork and prints from our tattooers - PLUS some prizes from a few of our favorite local businesses including Pinwheel Records Chicago Cafe Jumping Bean Thalia Hall Pilsen Community Books Sleep Walk Chocolateria Semillas and more!

BABY’S GOT BACK IS TWO DAYS AWAY!!
We are so excited to host over 40 artist’s interpretations of the classic ’back piece’, so many unique works are already pouring in as we’ve been getting The Baby all ready for the show.

Merch design by Connor Flatley and printed by our friends over at Exploding House Printing (thank you SO much for bringing these to life!!!)

Shirts will be available day of the show for $25 and whatever sizes are left over will be available to purchase for $30. This is a limited run and once the shirts are gone they’re gone for good so swing by Saturday to snag one before they’re gone forever🫣🫣🫣

We are super excited for this show and grateful for everyone participating!
See you all this Saturday July 25th, 7-11pm at The Baby!!
