Overview
Join us for an unforgettable cultural experience at Saxman Native Village that blends creativity, cuisine, and tradition. Start with a hands-on Native craft workshop where a local Tlingit artist introduces you to formline drawing and guides you in designing your own painted ornament.
Next, enjoy a flavorful tasting experience featuring classic and unexpected Alaskan favorites. Pair craft beer, wine, or craft soda with local bites like reindeer sausage, kelp pickles, smoked salmon dip, and other delicious regional treats.
Your guided tour includes a cultural showcase of Alaska Native art, clothing, and tools, highlighting hand-carved pieces by Master Carver Nathan Jackson and artifacts from the historic Village of Cape Fox. Learn about Tlingit traditions and stories as you explore the totem park and exhibits, and cap off the experience with a vibrant performance by the Cape Fox Dancers in the Beaver Clan House.
