If you have a tattoo, thank a sailor.

The East End Seaport Museum & Marine Foundation's exhibit on the history of maritime tattoos and contemporary examples of the art will be on view May 26-October 8. Beginning Memorial Day weekend when Greenport plays host to  the Tall Ship Challenge the museum will be having exciting events all about tattoos.For more information: www.eastendseaport.org. On view at the museum is "Sailor Boy" tattooed for this event by local artist Megan Barron. Also on view is an interactive sculpture by another local artist Scott Mc Intire. Pose behind this figure and take home a photo of yourself as an illustrated man.
