Abstract
Pertains to a collection of contemporary writing and artwork from Northern Saskatchewan. The Northward Journal was published in an effort to celebrate the arts being produced in Northern Saskatchewan. The publication showcases a variety of fine arts, poetry and short fiction. The publication is niche in the sense that it focuses primarily on Northern Saskatchewan, yet it remains simultaneously all-encompassing through its relationship to the Canadian art scene.
