The Atlanta Tattoo Arts Festival creates a buzz every spring as dozens of skin artists descend upon suburban Atlanta for a weekend of inked-up fun June 3-5. But for its 15th anniversary, the event is really living up to the festival portion of its name with lots of tattoo-related events to keep people entertained even when they're not giving or getting tattoos.
On Friday, December 17, Fahamu Pecou returned to the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center to host the 15 Project — his talk show styled fest featuring local tastemakers in the arts and entertainment community. The purpose? To bring folks together who may not interact in their everyday lives and careers. The program’s name is a nod to Andy Warhol’s famous quote on 15 minutes of fame.
Musical Director, D.J. Kemit dropped the sounds and the event was co-hosted by Pecou’s fellow artist, Fabian “Occasional Superstar” Williams. Williams appeared in “Christmas attire:” a green beret, green velvet jacket, green bowtie, red shirt and plaid slacks. He warmed up the crowd while alternately sipping cognac and Prosecco prior to Pecou’s entrance.
