Land Acknowledgment
Anchorage lies within Dena’ina Ełnena, the homeland of the Dena’ina Athabascan people and the Native Village of Eklutna. We’re grateful for their ongoing stewardship of this land and everything it holds.
Our Community
Anchorage connects people to a place. The sense of community and social connectedness sets Anchorage apart and above. Markets, the nonprofits, arts and culture events, fundraiser fun runs, civic engagement/community councils, innovative programs knit us together. Connect with a local today.
Anchorage in general is way more accessible than a lot of these super accessible places you hear about.
— Alaskan and skier Ira Edwards
