There are many stories that make up Alaska – many voices, many cultures, many identities. At the Alaska Humanities Forum, we believe that stories – and in particular stories that reflect a more inclusive narrative of our state – have the power to help bridge difference and spark connection by deepening our understanding of others, ourselves, and our communities. This means that stories are not only central, but critical, to the work of strengthening communities across the state.
We organize stories by 9 themes. Check them out below!
Reflecting on moments of personal growth, discovery, and learning to care.
Learn MoreUnderstanding our accountability and responsibility to our communities.
Learn MoreCelebrating the importance of mentorship and learning from each other.
Learn MoreConnecting across differences of perspective, experience, background, and belief.
Learn MoreThe Alaska Humanities Forum is a non-profit, non-partisan organization that designs and facilitates experiences to bridge distance and difference – programming that shares and preserves the stories of people and places across our vast state, and explores what it means to be Alaskan.
