Update
Posted On August 11, 2023I cannot express to you in words as to the magnitude of this disaster. I am also overwhelmed by the offers of generosity from so many.
We are okay, our studio is still standing, my dogs are okay, and we will be reunited soon. We will be find a way back to work tattooing as soon as it is safe to do so. Sweet Trade Tattoo will reopen when it is appropriate.
There are so many that are not okay. Help them here at Maui Strong. https://www.hawaiicommunityfoundation.org/strengthening/maui-strong-fundĀ
There are tattooers in Lahaina who all lost everything, they need help. All of the tattoo shops in Lahaina are gone. Not one of them survived the fire. Each artist and shop that was lost has an instagram, all of them have a venmo or gofundme. Help them, they need it now to find a way to recover from this.
