Ink that gives back. 🖤

This Saturday, October 17, we’re bringing the community together at State Forty Eight HQ in Chandler for a full-on Rack Sale, and the State Forty Eight Foundation Tattoo Fundraiser is back!

A tattoo is a permanent commitment. So is our support for Arizona’s small business owners. Every appointment helps fund the education, resources, grants and community connections that help local entrepreneurs grow their dreams right here in the 48th state. You walk away with art you’ll carry forever, and an Arizona founder gets a boost that lasts just as long.

Here’s what’s waiting for you:
🛍️ Exclusive Rack Sale deals, new products and our newly renovated retail space
🎨 Tattoo flash sheets from The Lost Cove Co.
☕ Love Bus Coffee Co.
✨ Alis Volat Permanent Jewelry
🌱 Rollin In Roots
🎥 True Nature Media
👜 A FREE custom tote bag for everyone who registers for a tattoo, courtesy of our amazing partners AS Colour

📅 Saturday, October 17 | 10 am - 3 pm
📍 State Forty Eight HQ, Chandler

A little ink with a lot of meaning behind it. 👀

Mike sat down with Travis to talk about how the Tattoo Fundraiser started, why we continue to host it, and how an event built around local artists and community can help support Arizona entrepreneurs.

At its core, the fundraiser is about using creativity to give back, bringing people together, and creating another way for the community to support the work of State Forty Eight Foundation.

And yes, Mike got tattooed while talking about it. 😏

Join us October 17 and be part of it.

Our second Hispanic Heritage Month feature takes us to Maleta Cafe maleta.cafe in Downtown Phoenix. ☕️

Owner Maria brings an incredible story shaped by traveling the world, experiencing different flavors and cultures, and finding ways to blend those influences with her own heritage.

The result is a coffee experience that feels personal, thoughtful, and completely her own.

You can find Maleta Cafe inside the Arizona Latino Arts & Cultural Center in Downtown Phoenix. Go show Maria some love and check it out for yourself. ❤️

Meet Yaz, another talented artist joining us for this year’s Tattoo Fundraiser on October 17. 👀 Y a z z

Yaz has been tattooing for almost four years and specializes in illustrative gothic work.

Hot take… or maybe cold take… he’s also a big fan of snowboarding right here in Arizona. 🏂

We’re so excited to have Yaz joining us for his first Tattoo Fundraiser this year.

That’s a wrap on the 2026 Entrepreneur Speaker Series. ❤️

Over two Saturdays, we welcomed 415 attendees for honest conversations, practical advice, new connections, and plenty of moments that reminded us why this work matters.

From building strong foundations to standing out, growing with intention, and creating better experiences for the people you serve, ESS was designed to give Arizona entrepreneurs something they could actually take back to their businesses.

A huge thank you to every panelist, moderator, sponsor, vendor, volunteer, and attendee who helped bring both days to life.

Different speakers. Different conversations. One full entrepreneur experience.

If you attended ESS, check your email for information on the Entrepreneur Grant Program application process. 👀

Not sticking with you yet? 👀

Here’s one more reason to be in the room tomorrow: we’re giving away TWO microgrants during Day 2 of the Entrepreneur Speaker Series.

Add that to a fresh lineup of speakers, new conversations, and a full day built for Arizona entrepreneurs, and your Saturday plans are looking pretty solid.
