Cultured magazine celebrated the launch of its February-March 2025 edition with a packed party at Quarters, a unique TriBeCa venue. Founded by industry veteran Sarah Harrelson in 2012, Cultured combines the art and fashion worlds, reflecting a resurgence in independent magazines. As print media evolves, titles like L'Etiquette and Polyester coexist with traditional outlets, now viewed as luxury products rather than obsolete artifacts. Editor Penny Martin underscored the appeal of these publications as they provide singular perspectives and aesthetically pleasing designs that resonate with a diverse audience, marking a shift in contemporary publishing.

Harrelson reflected on her journey starting Cultured at 38, when she was creatively bored and seeking to break free from formulaic publishing.
