Quyanaa minarluta – Thank you for giving (to us)

Many people, organizations, and agencies invested in the Alutiiq Museum in 2024.  We extend our most sincere appreciation for their generosity and the commitment to preserving and sharing Alutiiq heritage that it represents.

In 2024, we moved our entire collection into a new basement vault with help from Rasmuson Foundation, Museums Alaska, and the EVOS Trustee Council.

In 2024, we published a book on Kodiak Alutiiq history with support from Koniag and the Institute of Museum and Library Service.

In 2024, we hosted beaded cuff workshops with support from the City of Kodiak and the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center.
