About the Alaska Humanities Forum (AKHF):
The Alaska Humanities Forum connects Alaskans through stories, ideas and experiences that inspire understanding and strengthen community. We believe many of the challenges facing our communities are rooted in a lack of connection, understanding, and communication. Using the humanities - literature and storytelling, history, art, music, philosophy, our shared cultural heritage - we design and facilitate experiences that help Alaskans better understand themselves, one another, and the world around them.
We offer different programming to meet our mission: Community Conversations gather Alaskans with diverse perspectives to talk about challenging issues and build trust; Cultural Competency programs help educators and other people-serving professionals develop culturally responsive practices; Leadership Development programscultivate agency and empathetic leadership among community-minded Alaskans; Storytelling programs uplift storytellers and amplify stories that deepen our understanding of ourselves and our state; Youth Empowerment programs support young people in building confident identities, cultural grounding, and supportive networks; and Grants invest in Alaskans’ efforts to strengthen our communities.
Founded in 1972, the Alaska Humanities Forum is one of 56 state and territorial councils supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities.
