    The Anchorage Museum connects people, expands perspectives, and encourages global dialogue about the North and its distinct environment.

    As Alaska's largest museum, we are a Smithsonian Affiliate and feature Alaska Native cultures through objects from the Smithsonian Institution. Art of the North and the history of Alaska combine with our hands-on Discovery Center for families, featuring marine life tanks, a planetarium, innovation spaces and more. We host many changing exhibitions each year in our galleries, exploring creative practice, history, and science from the North with connections to places, ideas and people around the world.

    The Anchorage Museum sits on the traditional homeland of the Eklutna Dena’ina. The Museum is committed to recognizing and honoring the land, culture and language of the Dena’ina people. We recognize and respect the continuing connection, by Alaska Native people and all Indigenous people, to the land, waters and communities.
