  • The Alaska Native Heritage Center is an educational and cultural institution for all Alaskans, located in Anchorage, Alaska. The center opened in 1999. The Alaska Native Heritage Center shares the heritage of Alaska's 11 major cultural groups. These 11 groups are the Athabaskan people, Eyak people, Tlingit people, Haida people, Tsimshian people, Unangax people (Aleut), Alutiiq people, Yup'ik, Cup'ik, Siberian Yupik, and Inupiaq. The Heritage Center, located ten miles from downtown Anchorage, is situated on 26 wooded acres. The Gathering Place provides visitors an opportunity to experience demonstrations of Alaska Native dancing, Native Games, and traditional storytelling. The Hall of Cultures provides rotating exhibits, craft activities for the family, and craft and artwork created by Alaska Native artists. The theatre features rotating films, including a documentary produced by the Heritage Center, titled "Stories Given, Stories Shared." Outside, visitors can tour the village sites, consisting of six life-sized Native dwellings surrounding Lake Tiulana. The six dwellings represent the unique ways of living practiced by the Athabascan, Inupiaq/St. Lawrence Island Yupik, Yup’ik/Cup’ik, Aleut, Alutiiq, and the Eyak, Tlingit, Haida and Tsimshian peoples. Youth interns lead many tours of the village sites, which also include artifacts for use in daily life. The Alaska Native Heritage Center is the only statewide organization which represents all Alaska Native cultures. The nonprofit is operated by Alaska Natives and is one of the few tribally unaffiliated arts organizations that is run by Indigenous people. (en)
  • Das Alaska Native Heritage Center ist ein Museum für die Kultur der Ureinwohner Alaskas in Anchorage. 1987 reagierte die , die größte Ureinwohnerorganisation Alaskas, auf den Wunsch nach einer Begegnungsstätte mit der Planung eines Kulturzentrums für den gesamten Bundesstaat. Daraus entstand knappe zwei Jahre später das Alaska Native Heritage Center als unabhängige, steuerbefreite Non-Profit-Organisation. Zwischen 1989 und 1999 konnten mit föderalen, bundesstaatlichen, regionalen und privaten Mitteln 14,5 Millionen US-Dollar für den Bau der Einrichtung gesammelt werden. Die ursprünglichen Planungen hatten Kosten in doppelter Höhe vorgesehen und das Projekt musste den vorhandenen Mitteln angepasst werden. Das Baugrundstück war 1994 gekauft worden und das Heritage Center wurde am 1. Mai 1999 eröffnet. (de)
