Alaska Native Heritage Center
Alaska Native Heritage Center
History

Living-culture center with traditional dwellings, dance, and demonstrations covering Alaska Native history, languages, and contemporary indigenous life.

What families say
Plan on 90 minutes if you can catch the guided tour of the traditional dwellings—reviewers say the student guides are engaging and it deepens understanding of the 11 native groups far more than walking through solo. Kids also enjoy the live teen singing/dancing performances and demonstrations of traditional games, plus there's a multimedia Hall of Cultures. Note that admission runs around $26-30 per person and one reviewer felt the exhibit space was small for the price, so it's worth pairing with the tour or performance times to get full value.
