Whether you are simply curious or conducting scholarly research, you will find an abundance of information in our archives and library, and through programs like our lecture series and visiting scholars. Whatever your interest, the path to our peoples’ past starts here.
Native people
Preserving traditional knowledge and practices.
Our culture, history and language programs are informed by our Council of Traditional Scholars, a panel of clan leaders and elders with extensive knowledge of Southeast Alaska Native cultures.
We periodically assemble the council to provide guidance and insight on both new and existing programs.
