Alaska Native people celebrate their Indigenous culture through fashion, music, and art. During the week-long gathering in Anchorage for the annual First Alaskans Institute’s Elders and Youth conference and the Alaska Federation of Natives convention, there are fashion shows, talent competitions, and art shows at the gatherings. There are also various venues around town featuring fashion, music, and arts.
Alaska’s Native Voice (ANV), now in its 13th year, is hosted by National Native News anchor Antonia Gonzales with freelance producer Emily Schwing. The program highlights guests and recorded voices from AFN attendees, and engages in conversation about top issues facing Alaska Native communities across the state including climate issues, education, and language and culture.
