Will Anderson
"The museum...ties our culture together."
Will Anderson – Alutiiq Heritage Foundation Chair Representing Koniag Incorporated
"My mom is from Afognak and my dad is from Kodiak. I moved to Oak
Harbor, Washington in the first grade. I spent many summers back in
Kodiak working. I just recently moved back to Kodiak, after living in
Anchorage for six years."
"I see the museum as being the primary thing that ties
our culture together. As the President of Koniag, I see Koniag as being
a mechanism to help perserve and understand our culture. I think my
involvement is crucial."
"I am so supportive of bringing the [Pinart] masks
back from France. Seeing the pieces of our culture laid out before me
was amazing."
The Alutiiq Museum's professional staff includes administrators,
archaeologists, museum professionals, educators, language
specialists,
and technicians. In addition to nine permanent positions, the museum
funds temporary positions with grants, hosts interns, and maintains a
large corps of volunteers.
Volunteers are an essential part of the Alutiiq Museum and we appreciate the hundreds of hours community members donate each year. Volunteers help with everything from studying Alutiiq prehistory to greeting visitors and hosting special events. Volunteering is a great way to learn more about Alutiiq Heritage and make new friends.
