SUMMARY:Ts’utaetne (Honoring Ancestors) Traveling exhibit
DESCRIPTION:The Palmer Museum of History and Art is excited to share a new traveling exhibit with the community. At the heart of our work is a deep commitment to inspiring\, enriching\, and cultivating a stronger connection to the unique history\, culture\, and art of the Greater Palmer Area. \nThis traveling exhibit reflects that mission by bringing forward the voices and stories that have shaped our community. \nBy sharing these narratives\, we honor the past\, celebrate local identity\, and invite meaningful dialogue about who we are—and who we are becoming. \nWe are proud to share this exhibit and welcome others that support this vision. Together\, let’s continue telling the stories that have shaped the Palmer of today. \n“Interpreting histories can be challenging and painful and requires an honest vulnerability\, however\, we must acknowledge and tell these stories to heal from past traumas and increase awareness so that past traumas are not repeated on future generations. Through knowing and sharing our stories we work to end historic and intergenerational trauma cycles and improve community understanding to create a healthier community together. \nThe First Peoples and first languages of Alaska were profoundly affected by Russian and European-American incursions beginning in the mid-17th century. For many Tribal citizens of Nay’dini’aa Na’ Kayax (Chickaloon Native Village)\, colonization policies and practices have intentionally and inadvertently separated them from parts of their Ahtna ancestral knowledge\, stories\, and language. For some\, years of forced acculturation have created distance from traditional lands and cultural lifeways that take place on those lands. \nTo make way for a healthier future\, the people of Nay’dini’aa Na’ Kayax are intentionally exploring their history and continue to live\, learn\, document\, and share their Ahtna language and cultural lifeways; relying on traditional Ahtna values and teachings to help present and future generations to thrive.”

SUMMARY:Signing with Bailey Berg
DESCRIPTION:Bailey Berg will be at Fireside Books on Saturday\, December 6th from 1:00-4:00pm to sign copies of her book\, Secret Alaska.\nAbout the book:\nSecret Alaska: A Guide to the Weird\, Wonderful\, and Obscure takes you off the well-trodden trails and into the hidden corners of the 49th state\, where ghost towns whisper of boomtown dreams and where festivals allow outhouses\, giant vegetables\, and survival skills to take center stage. Between these covers\, you’ll discover everything from communities where locals launch cars off cliffs to celebrate Independence Day to what it takes to build the most remote homestead in the country. And along the way\, you’ll meet the unforgettable characters—from Indigenous leaders and bush pilots to gold miners and adventurers—who had a hand in shaping Alaska.\nFor those who crave the peculiar and the offbeat\, this is not your typical guidebook. It’s an invitation to experience the Alaska that tourists rarely see and locals love to share.
