About
Rhubarb is an independent, secular, not-for-profit magazine for the general reading public, published three times a year. Designed to provide an outlet for the (loosely defined) Mennonite voice, Rhubarb reflects the changing face of the Mennonite community, promotes dialogue, and encourages the Anabaptist tradition of reformation and protest. Rhubarb is looking for contemporary art and writing of excellence. Writing should be clear, stimulating and persuasive without being didactic. Rhubarb publishes poetry, drama, creative non-fiction and short fiction, and images of two and three dimensional artwork. Rhubarb also publishes humour, book reviews, commentary and articles. There are regular calls for our usually themed issues, but work in any form on any subject is welcome anytime. The themes for this publishing year focus on what some would consider Mennonite taboos; Money, Sex, and Politics.
