Are you tired of the same old approaches to the same old issues? Would you like to replace predictable opinion with context and creativity? If so, Open Spaces is for you. Open Spaces is an award winning, entertaining, and thought-provoking magazine of ideas from the Pacific Northwest. Here's what some people have to say about Open Spaces: "Open Spaces is a fresh new voice from the Northwest. It is willing to take its readers seriously by treating complicated isues in depth, yet it is marked by a grace of expression that makes it a pleasure to read. I find myself looking forward to the next issue." -Dave Frohnmayer, President, University of Oregon “Every issue of Open Spaces contains articles that provoke debate, question assumptions, inspire wonder, and introduce colorful people and other critters. Open Spaces introduces natives and immigrants alike to the root of this region’s culture, and provides the sense of place we need to be true Northwesterners.” -Denis Hayes, President & CEO, The Bullitt Foundation "Open Spaces reminds me of one of my all time favorite publications, American Heritage... pages and pages of thought-provoking text." -Vancouver Columbian "The arrival of Open Spaces... prove(s) intelligent people still are creating serious magazines that don't dumb down to their readers." -The Oregonian “Open Spaces is a wise investment for state-of-the-art information on issues vital to the Northwest. I always read it with great anticipation.” -William D. Ruckelshaus, Strategic Director, Madrona Investment Group “The Open Spaces articles on salmon and land use are the best I’ve read anywhere.” -William Kittredge, Writer "Open Spaces offers a unique contribution to the life of our community. A magazine designed for the intelligent reader, it provides a forum for thoughtful discussion of issues important to us all. It also provides a new opportunity for our many incredibly talented writers. Presented with intelligence, humor and style, Open Spaces is a pleasure to read." -Julie Mancini, Executive director, Literary Arts, Inc. "Open Spaces" is sheer, unadulterated quality. It promises to capture the innermost secrets of Pacific Northwest life and publish literate articles on them. Captivating writing on a broad range of topics: politics, public education, environment, mountain climbing for a fee, and more....A west coast "New Yorker"? -Ralph W. Johnson, Professor of Law, University of Washington School of Law Readers of this column are well aware of this journalist's sensitivity to the overarching influence of the East Coast publishing establishment. In numerous "national" publications, the Northwest finds itself reflected through the lens of an Eastern bias.... In these beautifully designed pages, Western writers address the decline of the salmon, cloning, business and the arts, medicine and poetry. It is thoughtful, eloquent and often witty. And the delightful, unique part is, these writers speak "Northwest." -Faris Cassell, Eugene Register-Guard. Look for it at bookstores and on newsstands. -The Seattle Times |
