Museum: Power Up

Light the way to a clean and bright future for your museum

Museums around the world are finding ways to align values with infrastructure: generating energy through solar, reducing costs, and modeling sustainability for the next generation. The power of Alaska’s midnight sun can help the museum operate on clean, renewable, and reliable energy. 

We need your help to ensure the museum’s important work lives on for generations to come. Stewarding and sharing the stories of Alaska with a smaller impact on the landscape that inspires those very stories is possible – and you can make it happen.

Your donation will support Phase 1 of the Anchorage Museum's solar array, a $250,000 project that is a step toward long-term care, lower energy costs, and a more sustainable future. This first array of 120 panels will help the museum save nearly $600,000 in energy costs over the next 25 years. These savings can be used to share more of the exhibitions and programs you and your neighbors love.

Thanks to support from the Frankenthaler Climate Initiative, we already have $75,000 toward the first solar array. Donate $250 or more today and get your name permanently added to the solar array. Leave a legacy for generations to come. 

Will you help us reach this goal with a gift of $250 or more? Together, we can shed more light on the wonders of the place we call home.
