The Skin! art show happens at South University in Tampa, Florida on July 19-20, 2024.

It’s adults-only in the Plaza Terrace neighborhood near West Tampa this weekend when the long-running Skin! Art show returns.

The fine art exhibition serves as a fundraiser for the nonprofit which works year-round to provide visual and performing arts education and opportunities for local creatives. Photographers, sketch artists, spoken word, fashion designers, and musicians are all part of the programming, along with body painters and more.

“It’s just a full art show, a sensory exploration, everything you can see and hear, in an adult setting,” founder Hampton Allen told Creative Loafing Tampa Bay. “It’s just a big ol’ vibe for people to come out, enjoy themselves and have a good time.”

Tickets for the Skin! Art Show happening Friday-Saturday, July 19-20 at Tampa's South University are still available and start at $30.
Readers are invited to submit their own events to Creative Loafing Tampa Bay’s things to do calendar.
