  • You might not expect much from the exterior facade of the Alaska Jewish Museum. Or even from the interior, as you step into the small room that houses the rotating exhibits. But once you start exploring the displays, you'll find yourself deeply engrossed in the expertly curated stories being told there. Some which you won't find anywhere else in the world, let alone the internet! Whether you're interested in learning more about the early and current Jewish population, or Alaska's planned role in WW2 relocation, this museum will have something for you to explore the next time you visit Anchorage.
  • It's an incredible place with so much history jam packed into it. I hope more people come into see it
