Portland Monthly is a Portland, Maine-based publisher focused on books and periodicals, best known for Portland Magazine. Founded in 1985 by Colin and Nancy Sargent, it emphasizes an independent, reader-focused approach rather than generic content. Its pages feature prize-winning, in-depth profiles of local personalities, unbiased reviews, and regular coverage of food through its Hungry Eye section. The publication also presents interviews and a mix of fiction, listings, and narratives addressing local economic and social issues in Maine. It positions itself as offering a distinctive perspective on Maine that goes beyond standard city-lifestyle coverage, appealing to readers interested in the region’s culture and business environment. Based in Portland, it operates as a small-to-mid-sized regional publisher, with a website at portlandmonthly.com. Recent activity shows ongoing engagement with the local scene, such as attending an event at North43 Bistro in 2025, indicating continued operations beyond print.
