Buckman Journal 002 Launch Party

Join us for the launch party, Friday, March 8, 7pm, at Bunk Bar on Water Ave (the one in the Buckman neighborhood).

The savviest writers. The sharpest artists.

For Buckman Journal 002, John Gourley, who fronts Portugal. The Man, collaborated with photographer Hattie Watson to create the cover. Inside: An excerpt from the novel Kickdown by award winning author Rebecca Clarren; a selection of poems by one of the form’s rising stars, Liz Lampman, paired with the art of Jessica Poudstone; comics by Sketchy People; and a wealth of short stories, memoirs, essays, flash fiction, and art, all made by Portlanders!

Sending scouts deep into the Portland, Oregon, literature and arts scene, Buckman Journal brings together the city’s exceptional talent and presents them to the greater world. Delivered with gusto and cutting visuals, the printed medium is very much alive in Buckman.

Buckman Journal is named after the legendary inner-southeast Portland neighborhood. On sale for only $15 locally, this is the best deal to get the inside lane on what’s happening NOW in Portland. Giddy up!
