TeKay Designs on Port of Harlem

Posted on January 6, 2013 by tk-designs

It is an honor to have been featured in Port of Harlem, a respected publication that has held a strong following for over 15 years in print and is now completely green.

A general interest magazine, Port of Harlem presents the best history, news and features concerning the Black perspective. Contributors live in the UK, Gambia, The United States and range from a wide variety of ethnic backgrounds.

“Many of my bridal customers want something more colorful than the traditional white gown. Color has symbolic value. For example, gold is for wealth, red is for the strong bloodlines, green is for the land and good health. However, cultural pride has intrinsic value that you cannot price.” [Kimma Wreh]

Many thanks to Wayne Young and the rest of his talented staff.
