We were founded by Tyrese Bailey in 2018 under the name 'Excelsior Magazine' as a passion project during his college years, with a growing influence. Barbados was and still is in a significant and transformative period for arts and culture. Nobody was documenting the youth and their shifts in artistic practices, ideologies, and perspectives that challenge traditional norms and push the boundaries of creativity and expression... so we did!
Later rebranding into Raskal, we are more than a magazine; it's a movement. We celebrate the diversity of art and culture. But we're not just observers; we're participants in the art ecosystem. We collaborate with young designers and brands to share resources, knowledge, techniques, and experiences to inspire the future.
Raskal Magazine is Barbados' first exclusive art and lifestyle magazine, pioneering creativity for the new generation. With Barbados' predominantly ageing society, it was created to cover the gap in the market for young creatives adopting an attitude of positivity and eagerness for the future. We welcome those ready to step out of the norm and create a new reality.
Raskal Magazine supports eco-conscious initiatives, ensuring that our love for art doesn't come at the expense of our beloved planet.Join us as we navigate the ever-changing landscapes of art, where each page is an invitation to explore, create, and connect with the profound, the beautiful, and the extraordinary.
