Island Journals

The Institute's yearly magazine of island life has been its keynote publication since 1984, when the first issue arrived in members' mailboxes and was available for purchase to non-members. Since then, it has become perhaps the most valued benefit of Island Institute membership, with its stories, poetry, photographs and articles about the myriad facets of "islandness" found here inot only here in Maine but also on islands around the world. 

On the Cover

Every issue of the Island Journal is unique, but all 24 magazines share one common thread: cover art by Peter Raston, the Island Institute's Executive Vice-President and professional photographer, whose work can be found in galleries around the country.  Peter's photographs are also woven throughout each issue of the Island Journal, and his imagery of the ineffable beauty found in the islands and waters of the Gulf of Maine have become synonymous with our organization and its commitment to help sustain these special places.

2007 Island Journal Volume 23
With “Island Play”, “The Sound of Youth”, “Sharp Tools, Sharp Kids” and other articles in this issue, the 2007 Island Journal adopts a playful, youth-oriented attitude that includes a folio of Eric Hopkins’ clean, bright paintings and “magical” glass globes.
