FABAIC

Our guild attended the Face and Body Art International Convention in Ft. Lauderdale, FL this year. Our members can be found instructing, volunteering, competing and attending classes on face and body art for five days of amazing partying, learning and networking.

Its really hard to get everyone in one place, so we took a few group shots. 

Our guild won 5 awards, I was so proud of our group!!

April Jam @ HOB Hops for Hope

This month's jam was organized through NIX Body Art and was a fundraiser for Hops for Hope, an organization that builds schools in Africa. We raised more than half of what was needed for their next trip by donating artwork and painting the public for tips. Here are some pictures of the event.
