A Place to Learn,
Educate, and Grow.
Cultural tourism is perpetuating of our ways of life; it’s healing; language revitalization; it is the accurate telling of Alaska Native history; it’s our youth knowing they are part of a community that is living and vibrant, with a robust future, and that we have had and still have a powerful story and experience to share. ANHC is leading the way for cultural tourism in Alaska.
