Alutiiq Museum

The Alutiiq Museum preserves and shares the heritage and culture of the Alutiiq people. We are a small, but Nationally-accredited Alaska Native-run museum, archaeological repository, and culture center. Our gallery features exhibits telling the Alutiiq story - the incredible history of the Indigenous, coastal Alaska Native people of the stormy Gulf of Alaska. The Alutiiq Museum Store features an unexpectedly rich offering of authentic Alaska Native art and jewelry, that supports the work of artists from around the archipelago. Our educational programs explore traditional and contemporary Alutiiq arts and skills, and they are open to everyone. We are committed to creating respect and enthusiasm for Alutiiq culture among people of all heritages. Takina! You should Come!

Reviewed By Follync

Well worth a visit. Yes it's a small museum but its engaging exhibits use multimedia as well as interactive activities to tell the history and culture of the Alutiiq on Kodiak, so there is something for everyone in varied group. The gift shop has reasonably priced, authentic jewelry.
