Tattoo Shop Near MGM Grand Las Vegas
Staying at MGM Grand or walking the south Strip? Work of Art is on E. Tropicana — a short rideshare east of the resort, not a booth inside a casino mall.
Convention and show visitors often book a consult on night one and tattoo on a return trip — we plan session length so you are not rushed before a flight home.
Directions from your area
- From MGM Grand front desk: exit onto Tropicana Ave and head east ~1.5 miles. We are on the north side of Tropicana at 2375 E. Tropicana Suite 3 — look for the Work of Art signage.
- Rideshare drop-off: use the studio address directly; do not use Strip valet addresses.
- From Las Vegas Blvd: turn east on Tropicana; studio is past Maryland Pkwy on your right.
Parking
- Private lot behind the studio — pull in and walk to the front door.
- Avoid Strip hotel parking fees for a consult; our lot is free for clients during appointments.
- If the lot is full (Friday night), street parking on side streets off Tropicana usually opens within a block.
Why collectors choose Work of Art
- Strip walk-ins optimize turnover — we book consults and show healed portfolio photos before you commit.
- Same address for Joshua Cole (tattoo & piercing) and Katelyn Cole (piercing) — one trip, not two shops.
- Evening hours align with show schedules: Mon–Thu until midnight, Fri–Sun until 6 AM.

Before you book
Coming from MGM Grand
The point of leaving the Strip is not to make the appointment harder. It is to get a calmer studio setting, better conversation, and enough time to plan the piece instead of rushing a tourist-floor decision.
- Send references before you leave the hotel if you want a same-day answer.
- Budget extra time for rideshare pickup, especially around arena or event traffic.
- If you are flying out soon, mention that before booking so aftercare and timing make sense.
