11:00 AM 8:00 PM
The Gilded Needle
12 1/2 Wall Street Asheville, NC, 28801 United States (map)
Appointments Only!
Each tattoo session is 1.5 hours, and spots are very limited. Darian and Wendy will each have 6 slots available, so 12 clients can book in total.
Deposit:
A $25 non-refundable deposit is required to reserve your slot. If you keep your scheduled appointment, your deposit will be applied towards the total of your tattoo.
Booking Details:
Appointments will open soon (as of this post on 7/13/25)! You’ll find everything you need to book on our Venue page. Set your reminders, because these spots will go fast. Please make sure you book specifically for this flash event, otherwise your booking may be delayed.
When booking, be prepared to choose which artist you want to work with, or know which time you want to book and you can choose the first available artist.
Darian and Wendy will both have their flash books available, many of which designs are soon to be uploaded to their respective Venue sites. Artists may also accept custom flash designs with prior approval, and you must choose your design before the day of the event so we may best stay on schedule.
Whether you’re a longtime collector or itching for your first piece, this is the perfect chance to wrap up your summer with something bold, beautiful, and uniquely you!
Stay tuned for the flash preview and booking drop—coming soon!
PS- Katie will get to join us again for this fun event, and capture some custom camera moments to share with you! We also have a special surprise option for this event in the works (;
