OUR VISION To create a lively and energetic new magazine highlighting the past, present and future in a way no local publication has done before. The Peorian strives to showcase engaging, insightful stories and features that speak to Central Illinois citizens, while taking a unique angle and fresh perspective. OUR MISSION The mission of The Peorian is to celebrate every aspect of this great community, from those who built it to those who are ensuring there will be a strong future. WHAT IS THE PEORIAN? The Peorian is the only local magazine that focuses on Peoria's past, present and future. We are not an issues-based publication – our focus is on the local scene and lives of the people who are or have been a part of it. While The Peorian is published six times a year, The Peorian Online is updated on a daily and weekly basis. The website allows readers to comment on stories, interact with other readers and get the latest updates. Along with the print and online publication, a weekly half-hour TV show is produced in our studio and airs on HOI on Sunday mornings at 8 a.m. The show is hosted by Paul Gordon and features one-on-one interviews with Peorians who are involved in the past, present and future of this great city. Extended interviews which aren’t featured on the show because of time constraints are featured on the website, along with additional interviews and videos. WHY PICK THE PEORIAN? It's the only local magazine focusing on the past, present and future of Peoria. It features well-known local writers, with a built-in fan base, as well as up-and-coming creative writers. With the online component, it is a resource that readers/users visit on a weekly, if not daily, basis. It provides interesting, entertaining and engaging content.
