Sealaska Heritage

The Sealaska Heritage Institute, founded in 1980 to promote Alaska Native culture, opened this hugely impressive facility in 2015 in the downtown Walter Soboleff building. The whole place is a work of art with much of the detail completed by Tsimshian artist David Boxley. As well as serving as an HQ for the institute, the center contains a full-scale replica of a clan house and a unique exhibit on native masks.
