Anchorage Museum

The Anchorage Museum in Alaska will hire new museum staff and train existing staff to develop community relationships, partnerships, networks, and alliances. The museum will hire a programmatic staff member to collaborate with and support communities of color and LGBTQ communities, as well as a curator to work with communities on climate change and climate justice. To best serve communities and provide long-term value, the Anchorage Museum will prioritize ongoing relationships with diverse communities, rather than relying on a program-by-program or transactional mindset. Through this new initiative, museum staff will work with a collaborative spirit, learning from the insights and leadership of others to create transformative experiences as the community recovers from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
