About Kajal Magazine

Kajal Magazine is a South Asian-centered art and opinion magazine. We started in December 2014 with a small team of volunteer writers and since then our readership has grown to include an engaged global audience. Kajal is published both online and in print. We focus on critique, creation, and curation, providing necessary thoughts on topics for the diaspora.
