FACE OFF: Skull-A-Day vs Street Anatomy Opening Night

Our FACE OFF: Skull-A-Day vs Street Anatomy opening was an incredible night celebrating one of the most iconic pieces of the human body, the skull.

We had music piping through the museum, tasty food & drinks, an awesome gallery shop featuring the jewelry of Anatomical Element, a melt-in-your-mouth human-size chocolate skull by Conjurer's Kitchen, an incredibly creative audience drawing their own skulls, and even had famous tattoo artist Hannah Aitchison of Deluxe Tattoo and LA Ink drop by. Noah Scalin of Skull-A-Day was in attendance with his crew and the Street Anatomy team plus the staff of the International Museum of Surgical Science were making sure everything ran smoothly.

For those of you that couldn't join us for opening night, we'd like to share with you photos of the gallery and event below. Enjoy!

Chocolate Skull Smashing

A gorgeous life size skull provided by the extremely talented Annabel de Vetten of Conjurer's Kitchen. The only way to eat it was to smash it to pieces!
