Storytelling
Storytelling
Heritage is not static. It stays alive when shared, practiced, and passed forward. Through partnerships and with culture bearers, Tribal organizations, artists, historians, and educators, we preserve oral histories and place names, support local storytelling and public art, and bring place-based storytelling into Alaska classrooms. This work keeps the region’s diverse histories and identities visible, accessible, and part of daily life for generations to come.

Stewardship
Recreation & Stewardship
Access to shared lands helps create and sustain culture in Alaska communities. We host outdoor recreation and stewardship events and partner with communities and land managers on citizen science, trail assessments, interpretive signage, and other projects that support responsible access and care for the landscape. This work deepens people’s connection to the region while helping ensure its trails and public lands remain accessible and cared for.
