Residents from across the Anchorage-Tikahtnu Upper Cook Inlet area are coming together to reflect on who we’ve been, who we are now, and who we want to become. This is part of a growing effort to recognize the region as a National Heritage Area.
This free, public event is for anyone who cares about the history and future of the Anchorage/Tikahtnu Upper Cook Inlet area—Tribal members, business owners, historians, Elders, faith leaders, artists, storytellers, teachers, youth, and anyone else who wants to connect with their neighbors and build stronger communities.
The stories and reflections gathered during this event will help shape a feasibility study that will be developed following the event and submitted to the National Park Service as part of the official process for designating the Tikahtnu Upper Cook Inlet as a National Heritage Area.
During the Storytelling Event, participants will have the opportunity to:
- Listen deeply to guest storytellers and learn more about a diverse range of experiences in the Anchorage/Tikahtnu Upper Cook Inlet area.
- Share and record your own stories in a range of formats, if you choose.
