  • Most of the museums we have visited in Alaska charge an admission fee, but this one is free and worth it! It is the various items collected by Maxine Whitney, mostly Inuit artifacts, and some...

  • This museum is literally one room but we stayed a looooong time because this was so fun to discover all the wildlife from Alaska and the handcrafts made from the Athabaskan (Alaska native people) and learn about their lives. We enjoyed it very much. A must for adults and kids.
  • Lots of stuffed animals and learn Alaska wildlife, culture and life. Totally worth to take a look!
