SEA OF INK:
NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM
Join us for Night at the Museum, a shadowy celebration of the relaunch of Sea of Ink: Savannah Maritime Tattoos. On this rare after-hours evening, the museum goes dark—except for the soft glow of illuminated ship models casting ghostly silhouettes across the galleries.
Wander through quiet corridors where history lingers, sip from the cash bar under the moonlight in Scarbrough gardens, and lose yourself in tattoo stories told by the people who wear them—brought to life in a new video installation.
With a live DJ set by legendary tattoo artist Jimmy Butcher, this is the only after-hours event in our Summer of Sea of Ink series. Step into the shadows—you never know what stories will surface
