Buckman Journal

The spirit of a museum security guard is able to leave and return to the body. Death doula leads the queer grief club. Artist makes a scroll one-mile long. Comic strip is an art form that will tangle eyes. Poetry from the 2023 Buckman Poetry Prize winner. Buckman Journal: Uncanny is an anthology showcasing over 25 local artists and writers serving up an all-genre feast of creativity. Uncanny features new works from Margaret Malone and Martha Grover, immersive visuals from Forest Wolf Kell and Jen Bacon, and cover art by Jess Ackerman, to name just a few. Crack open a copy and play a game of Sorcerers & Sewers, take a tour through the forests of Oregon, get inside the mind(s) of a museum guardian; travel up The Pinnacle, a three-hundred-plus-story building, surround yourself with interlocking fish tanks, get a glimpse of a mile long-scroll, take a late-night joyride, hang out with the barred owls, and much more.
