Always & Forever Tattoo Studio

As many of your already know, our lovely community of Watertown and Boston have gone through hell this last week.. I’m not going to get into the details because you already know what happened.. I want to show you why Watertown and our neighborhood is so amazing and how quickly we can take our street back after something that effected all of us in town..

What started as a desire for me to write something on the street thanking everyone that was involved with the efforts the day before to catch the guy that held us all hostage in our own homes, turned into a wonderful display of love and pride for our town.. Myself and Jaesun started to encourage people walking by to write something themselves.. It’s pretty hard to describe in words how amazing it was to watch the sidewalk fill up with messages and drawings over the course of the day.. And I know over the last 2 years I’ve had people ask me why I decided to open the studio in Watertown, I feel these pictures are a good look as to why I did.. These photos are from April 20, 2013, we left the chalk out Sunday so people could continue to add even though we were closed..

We would like to thank everyone that contributed to helping us take back our street after these stressful and surreal events that took place in our town and in front of our studio.. I would also like to thank everyone that helped all the victims of the Marathon Bombing, the authorities (state and local) that helped with the search and bringing this part of the story to an end.. Our lives will never be the same, but I would like to think our community is that much stronger for it.. Please enjoy the photos!!!
