Propose a Work of Art
The Alutiiq Museum periodically purchases contemporary artwork for its collections. Grant funds from Rasmuson Foundation’s Alaska Art Fund make this possible. Please complete our Artwork Purchase Proposal form to propose a piece of artwork for our permanent collection. The museum also accepts gifts of contemporary art. For assistance with a proposal or a donation, contact Amanda Lancaster at 844-425-8844.
The Alaska Art Fund allows us to purchase works that meet these criteria:
- Made by an established artist,
- Made by an artist currently living in Alaska, and
- Created within the past five years.
Additionally, the Alutiiq Museum requires that all artwork added to its collections meet the guidelines established in its collections policy and its art acquisition standards.
