It’s here!!!
Colour! Culture! Class!
ISLAND SIGNATURES!!!
From our rich history to exciting present, the Caribbean has made a number of advancements. As
we launch this first quarterly issue, our desire is to help fuel your passion for all things Caribbean.
Regionally, the aim is for you our valued readers to foster an appreciation of our diverse culture
which is reflected in the creativity of the featured work in the areas of fashion, art, music, culinary
arts and mixology, festivals and the lifestyle of our people. While the vision is by no means unique,
our approach and interpretation of ART is holistic with an eye and ear for detail. Our intention is to
promote awareness of equality and diversity while embracing new and existing talent from all the
islands.
Our hope is that as the pages of vibrant colour and creativity come to life in your hands…or rather
on your device…the call for further Caribbean integration will be answered. We welcome
advertisers to get on board quickly as our estimated reach in this first quarter is over 1,000,000
viewers.
So while we pop open our champagne and light up the pages with fireworks it is only fitting that we
acknowledge the hard work of our CEO Mr. Justin Ellis who worked tirelessly in birthing this
creation.
Join us on this journey! Download your digital copy… send the link, pass the word, tag a friend and
help us spread the vibe! Your action will help motivate more youth to get on board.
Finally, I am excited to see entrepreneurs bravely stepping out when they see others who have
taken the chance. It may seem unattainable but what do you have to lose? Art can be so dynamicthe possibilities are endless!
