Coming 2025! Second Annual Yuma TattooFest

Bio

Rollin Ol School came about during the summer of 2021. It originated as an art and car show sponsored by Manuel Flowers and several artists from Next Level Studio. The concept behind Rollin Ol School was to capture what comes to mind when you hear the phrase “Rollin Ol School.” Countless artists from all over the United States contributed works of art that they felt captured the imagery of the phrase. The event ran for two nights in a warehouse in central Phoenix. 

The show was meant to share art from the tattoo community as well as artists from the automotive industry by creating an atmosphere of lowriders and classic cars accentuated by beautiful art. The show successfully brought in large crowds to witness all the work put into the art and car show presentation.

Rollin Ol School has expanded to become a tattoo convention and car show. We will be bringing to Manuel’s hometown, Yuma, Arizona, the first-ever Tattoofest & Car Show. Growing up in Yuma, some of its best characteristics have to do with the food! Places like Mr. G’s, and countless others, we would like to share the food culture with the tattoo community. The show will feature great food vendors from all over Yuma! Ideally, it would give the tattoo community a genuine taste of our hometown! 

Rollin Ol School would like to present not only the art of the tattoo culture but also bring out artists of several different mediums, such as engravers and pinstripers, to share everyone’s excellent, skilled hands. We want to create an atmosphere of art, tattoos, and some of the most impressive vehicles. This show intends to fuse the tattoo, art, and vehicle scene, educate the public, and share some of our culture's rich history.
