Chinese New Year: Year of the Monkey Tattoo (One Thing, Three Ways)
Chinese New Year is one of five annual festivals celebrated at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. For more than two decades, the museum has celebrated the event with performances, demonstrations, art, music, and food. This was the temporary tattoo station featuring Year of the Monkey tattoos.
