TESTIMONIALS

  • Eden EDU Symposiums are unlike anything I’ve ever attended in the tattoo community. I can’t say I’ll miss any upcoming Symposiums from here on out. It’s such a great way to learn something new, even if the presenter doesn’t do your style. Now, let’s talk about the networking side of things. I’ve met some of the most talented artist in this community attending the symposium. They’re all kind, badass humans, and I’ve formed such solid relationships through the whole experience. I’ve lined up guest spots, and have had artist come guest where I work. It’s an incredible opportunity to connect with artist around the country, and in some cases, the world. If you’re considering attending, just pull the trigger already. You’ll find growth, and new friendships/connections.

    -Preston Schooley (@pdudetattoo), Winter ‘23 and Summer ‘24

  • Attending the Symposiums has not only helped me grow as an artist technically but it has also introduced me to some really amazing, like-minded artists that I have built lasting connections and friendships with. Eden does a great job at choosing their presenters. I learn so much from every presenter I’ve seen so far, even if their style of tattooing is very different than mine. Definitely worth the investment! You’ll see your work drastically improve and you’ll leave inspired each time.

    -Keely Thompson @artworkbykeely, Winter ‘23 and Summer ‘24

  • Eden organized an amazing event where you can learn from various artists representing the full spectrum of styles within the tattoo industry. It’s mind-blowing! Even if you specialize in one style, you’ll have the opportunity to broaden your knowledge and apply it to your own work! Alongside the fantastic lineup of speakers from the tattoo community, the opportunity to connect and network with both the speakers and other attending artists is an amazing bonus that you shouldn’t miss out on! Investing in yourself now will benefit your future self.
