Our Story
The Floor Magazine is an online and print publication celebrating black art and their artists.
We take pride in our meaningful commentary that continues to shape the narrative on black art and (pop) culture. We believe what is covered and who covers it decides what is deemed newsworthy. At The Floor Mag, black art, its artists and the writers that cover it are invaluable.
Through our digital covers, online coverage, events and social media content we are actively taking part in closing the information gap for artists and audiences across all of our topics, whilst cementing ourselves as a cornerstone of conversation on art and culture.
