Absolutely loved the heritage centre. Got the free shuttle from Anchorage at 9am and we had a lovely chat with Brandon the driver. At the centre, we especially enjoyed the games and the dance demonstrations. The tour was taken by Channing and Jackson who were extremely knowledgeable about the cultural heritage of the clans of Alaska. They dealt very well with the questions, even the odd ones!! Learned so much about the history and was very heartened by the young age of the demonstrators and guides. We had just arrived from Scotland the night before and had only one day in Anchorage before starting an arranged Alaskan tour. So glad we chose to visit the centre.
Wow! Just Wow! Absolutely best 5 hours of my day. Free shuttle to the Native Alaskan Heritage Center from Downtown Anchorage. Relaxed atmosphere to learn about the various Native Alaskan cultures. Don’t rush through the exhibits. Watch the videos/short movies. Take the guided tour, and talk to the local artists. Highly recommend adding this to your list of things to do.
Angelo was very informative, friendly and helpful.
The Heritage Center is a must see experience. Not only because it provides the historical background on the oppression Native people have experienced in America, but also because stories are told by the indigenous peoples themselves. The learning, guided tours, local artists, local performances; everything was excellent. Thank you for sharing your stories. I wished everyone could see this Center and learn history so history wouldn't continue to repeat itself. Humbled by this experience.
Great museum. Loved the demonstrations. Things to see inside as well as outside
This was a superior educational experience. The facility is one of the most lovely buildings I've been in. They have large "real life" exhibits along the garden walk outside the main building. There are very informative repeating presentations given on the main stage, often by very enthusiastic and knowledgeable youth. You really get a sense of the diversity in Native Alaskan cultures. And the history - timeline - as the main exhibit is eye opening (and tragic). It's a sad story, but I'm glad they're telling it.
The place is so interesting. I learned so much. It was so impressive how they made their tools, canoes, weapons and their homes out of the materials indigenous to their area. Loved the different examples of their homes depending on what region they lived in. I thought it was great how they use the younger generation as guides and to show examples of their native dance.
Outstanding experience with ongoing cultural activities since we arrived such as native games and dances as well as local artists showcasing their works. The tour by the lake is highly informative and everyone at the center was very friendly.
Worth the drive to immerse yourself in tribal history, tradition and experiences. Aesthetic and engaging displays; it enrages the soul while satisfying the senses.
Quyana (Thank you, Yugtun) for your kind words, we hope you visit us again!
$15 to get in during the winter, a wonderful experience to learn about native Alaskan culture. Multiple exhibits from various tribes/cultures and very nice staff. Awesome outdoor exhibits with recreations of dwellings from these native Alaskan cultures.
Taikuu (Thank you, Iñupiatun) for spending time at the Alaska Native Heritage Center, we are pleased to hear you enjoyed your experience. We hope to see you again!
