NORTH WEBSTER — The North Webster-Tippecanoe Township Chamber of Commerce celebrated one of the town’s newest businesses with a ribbon cutting ceremony Wednesday afternoon.

Cyne Art & Tattoo Studio, located at 102 N. Main St., North Webster, is owned by artist Madacyne Leatherman and includes two additional tattoo artists as well as two tattoo apprentices.

“We are women-owned and operated and do customized tattoos,” said Leatherman. “We are typically by appointment only, but sometimes we can do walk-in tattoos depending on scheduling.

“We are all artists outside of tattooing and art is really the cornerstone of our business.  May of last year is when I started Cyne Art & Tattoo. It slowly grew and I started hiring more women. It’s grown to be a really peaceful and powerful place. I’m really excited to grow and be in North Webster.”
