The main attraction at this multi-galleried museum is the Alaska Gallery with more than 1,000 pieces of history, artwork and photography by Alaskans. Five other galleries are housed in the downtown-area museum, showcasing a variety of temporary exhibits from all over the world and a Children's Gallery. This is a fascinating museum to visit. During the months of June through August, see educational evening programs at 7pm.
