ALUTIIQ HERITAGE FOUNDATION

Description

The Alutiiq Museum’s mission is to preserve the prehistoric and historic cultural traditions of the Alutiiq people and promote greater public awareness of the rich cultural legacy of all the indigenous societies of the Alaskan Gulf coast. In pursuit of these goals, the museum collects and preserves archaeological, ethnological, and archival materials from the Alutiiq Nation in a repository that is accessible to the public. The organization supports research on Alutiiq culture and history, and disseminates the results through exhibits, publications, and scholarly presentations.
