The Swiss Tattoo Museum in Ueken is hosting an event on Easter Sunday, April 5, dedicated to the culture, history, and community of this craft—without the buzz of needles. We invite tattoo artists and creatives to exhibit and sell their original artwork, flash designs, and handmade crafts.
Event concept: Art, Talk & Community
This gathering is all about the art form and the people behind it. There will be no tattooing at this event. Instead, we are creating a space for:

• Art sales: Sell your paintings, prints, flash books, and unique handicrafts.
• Networking: Meet other artists and enthusiasts in a relaxed, convivial atmosphere.
• Cultural exchange: Share stories and insights about the history and evolution of the craft.

Why attend?
The venue: The Swiss Tattoo Museum houses a vast collection of tattoo memorabilia, antique machines, and rare artwork.
Free: Reservations required, limited space.
Work: You probably won’t be working on Easter.
Connections: Build relationships with the Swiss and international tattoo community in an environment that encourages conversation.
Exhibition space: Take advantage of a venue that regularly showcases local and international legends.
Details & Contact
When: April 5, 2026
Time: 12:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.

Tibetische Thangkas im Schweizerischen Tattoo-Museum

Besuchen Sie das Museum und sehen Sie sich die tibetischen Kunstwerke aus nächster Nähe an, die absolut erstaunlich sind.

Diese beiden über 80 Jahre alten Thangkas stellen einen kleinen Teil der Museumssammlung dar.

Es ist nicht die größte Sammlung zur Geschichte des Tätowierens in der Welt, aber auf jeden Fall die einzigartigste, die einen Besuch wert ist.

Tibetan Thangka‘s at the Swiss Tattoo Museum

Come and visit the museum and examine these up close, the Tibetan artwork is absolutely amazing.

Over 80 years old these two Thangka‘s represent a small part of the museum collection.

Not the largest tattoo history collection in the world but absolutely the most unique and worthy of a visit.

Thangka tibétaines au Musée suisse du tatouage

Venez visiter le musée et examiner de près ces œuvres d’art tibétaines, qui sont tout à fait étonnantes.

Vieilles de plus de 80 ans, ces deux thangka ne représentent qu’une petite partie de la collection du musée.

Ce n’est pas la plus grande collection d’histoire du tatouage au monde, mais absolument la plus unique et qui mérite d’être visitée.
