The publication produces the Festival Supplement as a part its Summer issue of the bi-monthly magazine. This issue is given to all attendees at the festival. According to Atim Annette Oton, publisher and editor of Calabar Magazine, "this is the third year in a row that the magazine is publishing, and we are very supportive of the community event in Brooklyn." She continues, "our partnership with the International African Arts Festival is inline with our commitment to the Brooklyn African-American, African, Caribbean and African Diaspora community and one which we value".

Last year, the publication featured Barack Obama as the cover for the magazine and an article from several generations on why they support him.

The issue will also look at women's issues in Brooklyn and talk to women on how their lives are changing.
