Latin-tinged soul in #NoDa tonight, live Body Embellishment

The Body Embellishment exhibit, which opened Saturday, made me see tattoos in a more artistic light. I have always appreciated the skill of the artists, but the new Mint Museum exhibit is an example of how this former symbol of rebellion is now mainstream. Heck, I think it’s more rebellious not to have a tattoo these days. Programming around the Body Embellishment exhibit, which includes nail art, jewelry and fashion, continues throughout the month. Today, there’s a CAD (Contemporary Architecture + Design) lecture by fashion design group threeASFOUR (Gabi Asfour, Angela Donhauser, and Adi Gil). 3 p.m.   $12 or $5 for Mint members, free to teens and college students with ID.

Here's a peek at the opening reception:
