New Yorkers experienced an extra treat this past Easter Weekend when @TyedByDede presented his crew of awesome teen models wearing his custom designed Caribbean flag inspired Bow Tie creations!  These models were HOT and needed to stay COOL under pressure on the runway.  Flag Fantasy was proud to support their effort by providing FlagFan accessories to complement the Bow Ties!  A winning combination!  Congrats to all who participated in this successful presentation. The North American Carnival Season is just around the corner so order yours today!

Labor Day on the Parkway was a nice time.  Lots of color and costumes and cool Caribbean vibes for the West Indian American Day Parade!  Those who were careful enough to preserve their beads and feathers are now looking ahead to Miami Broward One Carnival which takes place over the Columbus Day Weekend (Thursday, October 6th through Monday, October 10th, 2016). 

Flag Fantasy is especially looking forward to that weekend to participate in the annual Carnival Pop Up Shop Miami, where a large number of vendors will be assembled at the Grand Café in Pembroke Pines, FL to provide last minute goods and services to the throngs of crowds converging on Miami for the Carnival that weekend.  Stop by to say hello and maybe pick up a FlagFan or 2 for you and your Crew to #RepOnDeRoad at the parade on Sunday!

Newly elected Prime Minister of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, Dr Keith Rowley, recently paid a visit to the Memorial Library of George Padmore in Accra, Ghana.

George Padmore was a Trinidadian who, along with fellow pan-Africanist Ghanaian independence leader Kwame Nkrumah, organized the Fifth Pan-African Congress which was held in Manchester, United Kingdom, 15–21 October 1945.  Most of those in attendance at this event were instrumental in linking the Motherland to the Diaspora and then went on to become illustrious leaders in their own countries throughout the world.

Black History Month 2016 from Flag Fantasy on Vimeo.

Flag Fantasy takes pride in celebrating the cultural diversity, and in acknowledging  the accomplishments & contributions of the African Diaspora in various communities throughout the world ... this and every month of the year!

The three colors of the Pan-African flag represent: Red: the blood that unites all people of Black African ancestry, and shed for liberation; Black: black people whose existence as a nation, though not a nation-state, is affirmed by the existence of the flag; and Green: the abundant natural wealth of Africa.  Flag Fantasy's creative interpretation on this original design deluxe fan serves as a reminder that even though the African homeland and journey therefrom are now memories from a painful past, the people look forward to building a brighter future and laying strong foundations in new worlds.
