Steps to Obtain Insurance (Tattoo Artists)

I need insurance:

If you don’t already have insurance, you can easily obtain general liability coverage through InkShopGuard.
Simply reach out to Nate and let him know you need insurance for the Richmond Tattoo & Arts Convention
Nate@inkshopguard.com

Once you receive your proof of insurance, make sure it includes two certificates of additional insureds (see below) and email them to eventcoordinator@richmondtattooconvention.com

 Additional Insureds:

• RVA Tattoo Arts LLC

  3313A W. Cary St., Richmond, VA 23221

  
  

• Shamin Hotels / DoubleTree by Hilton – Midlothian

  1021 Koger Center Boulevard, Midlothian, VA 23235

I already have insurance:

 1. Contact your insurance provider and ask how to list organizations as additionally insured.

2. They may require you to complete an Endorsement Request (or similarly named form) to add supplemental coverage.

3. The Endorsement Request will typically ask for the following info:

     a) The Richmond Tattoo and Arts Convention is hosted by RVA Tattoo Arts LLC.

     b) The Convention is October 23rd, 24th and 25th of 2026.

     c) The Convention is held at the DoubleTree by Hilton – Midlothian: 1021 Koger Center Boulevard, Midlothian, VA 23235.

4. When the Convention is added to the policy, be sure to list the following two additional insureds:

    a) RVA Tattoo Arts LLC: 3313A W. Cary St., Richmond, VA 23221

    b) Shamin Hotels/DoubleTree by Hilton – Midlothian: 1021 Koger Center Boulevard, Midlothian, VA 23235

5. The insurance company will need time to process your application, so make sure to get this done as soon as possible to mitigate any potential delays in getting your proof of insurance back.

6. Once you receive your proof of insurance with the two additional insureds listed, email it to eventcoordinator@richmondtattooconvention.com
