Even Keel Tattoo's Shark Weekend 7/12-13/2025

Dun Dun… Dun Dun… our favorite time of year is right around the corner,

Even Keel Tattoo’s 9th annual Shark Weekend!

It all started 9 years ago with a talented group of tattoo artists with a passion for scuba and a deep love of sharks… Kyle Walker, a New England-raised and highly sought-after tattoo artist, saw an opportunity to dedicate one weekend of Shark Week to nothing but shark-themed ink, all to donate the proceeds to a nonprofit organization advocating for the iconic animal’s protection. The rest is history! Shark Allies has been fortunate to benefit from the support of Even Keel’s shark-loving artists and community each year, fueling conservation campaign work for the months to come.

Each year, the Shark Allies team heads South to join the artists in educating event goers on the importance of healthy shark populations and actionable ways to make an impact. As always, there will be an awesome raffle to win one-of-a-kind art, and the kids are entertained with temporary shark tattoos and coloring books.

2025 - We rise from the ashes

We have had a rough start this year, with all of our materials, inventory, and assets burning to nothing but ashes in the California Palisades fire. We took a moment to regroup, but now we are going to come back stronger than ever.

We are uniting with partners to celebrate RESILIENCE!

We have several unique collaborations coming up, including our most awesome Shark Weekend Tattoo event in San Diego. It will be bigger and better than ever before, and Kyle Walker from Even Keel Tattoos is already working on a t-shirt design that expresses how we feel.
