Partner With Black Tattoo Anthology
Black Tattoo Anthology (BTA) is building a living archive and economic ecosystem for Black tattoo culture with world-class tattoo artists, creative professionals, and cultural tastemakers at the helm.
Through research, storytelling, events, and community programming,
we document the past while building pathways for the future of Black tattoo artists.
Cultural stewardship requires both practice and participation.
There are three ways you can partner with us.
Sponsor Black Tattoo Culture Con (BTCC)
Invest in Community & Education
Black Tattoo Culture Con is where the archive comes to life.
BTCC brings together tattoo artists, collectors, historians, and cultural workers to celebrate Black tattoo culture while creating real opportunities for artists.
Sponsorship helps fund:
• BTCC cultural exhibitions, educational panels and workshops
• Tattoo apprenticeships and fellowships
• Artist micro-grants and community programs
Your sponsorship directly supports the next generation of Black tattoo artists and cultural stewards.
