After over a year of searching for the right location--one that would allow us to expand just enough while giving us greater visibility and access to the community--we're thrilled to share that we've found the future home of Pure Tattoo Studio for many years to come. 

We've signed the lease on a fantastic new space that we believe will serve as a long-term foundation for our growth, creativity, and connection with all of you. This space has the potential to be exactly what we've dreamed of: a place where our mission can thrive and where you'll feel even more at home. 

However, shortly after signing, we encountered an unexpected challenge. 

As part of the permitting process, the zoning board informed us that we are required to pay an Impact Fee of $25,444.90. This fee, calculated based on square footage, is meant to account for the "transportation burden" our business might create in and out of Portland. While we understand the city's intentions, the amount came as a surprise. 

Rather than let this slow us down, we've decided to turn it into an opportunity to bring our community closer together. 

Introducing the Pure Impact Raffle 

To help offset this unexpected fee, we’re launching a raffle that gives you, our amazing clients and supporters, the chance to win an incredible tattoo from one of our award winning artists.

Not only will your participation support Pure during a pivotal time—it also gives you the chance to get something truly special by local artists you know and trust.

Thank you again for being part of our journey. We can’t wait to show you what’s ahead and to welcome you into our new space.

With love and gratitude,
The Pure Tattoo Team
