Join us at the Ch'k'iqadi Gallery, located within the Alaska Native Heritage Center, for Third Thursdays — the monthly evening celebration of contemporary Alaska Native artists. Each month, we feature new artwork by artists from a different Alaska Native cultural group. On every Third Thursday, enjoy a special after-hours event honoring the featured artists, complete with light refreshments and a 10% storewide discount. This event is free and open to the public.

New this month: Collections Visits

Experience a behind-the-scenes look at our collections, featuring recently donated cultural belongings. February’s program highlights items from the Iñupiaq and Sivuqam regions, made possible through support from the Luce Foundation.
