How readers engage with Canvas Magazine

Readers look forward to Canvas as part of their weekend read. Its glossy format sets it apart from the rest of the paper giving it a distinct identity. Readers put weight behind Canvas Magazine reviews and columnists.

“I always read Canvas if I buy the Weekend Herald. It’s kind of nice. I like having a big newspaper, but it’s nice to have something that’s a bit more convenient to read. Like it’s a bit different and it’s a different colour paper as well. If you’ve read something quite in depth or full on, like in the news bit, without (going) completely to a trashy magazine, it’s a good in-between.”

Canvas Magazine strongly engages by ‘entertaining me’ which is reflective of the ‘weekend mindset’ and the magazine values of the publication. Canvas also engages by ‘inspiring me’ and ‘absorbing me’.
