20 portraits of local tattooed Atlantans including executives, entrepreneurs, athletes, DJs

and attorneys will be on display for one night only at the Adidas store in Lenox Square

Mall. When asked why the mall for an art exhibit – Kat simply replies, “Retail is something

that’s accessible to everyone and that’s how I feel art should be.” This will be the fifth

exhibit she has presented at the Adidas store.

The interactive evening is complete with music by DJ Dibiase, live dance choreographed

by Jessica Gaines, live musical performances including Leaf – winner of Welcome To

Dreamland, and a Tattoo Wall of Fame. Guests will also enjoy complimentary hydration

courtesy of Vitamin Water Zero. There will be gift bags for the first 100 guests and an in-

store discount throughout the evening. As an extension of the Butterfinger marketing

team, Kat – a former Butterfinger FUNtern – will give away some tasty treats, too!
