Alaska Museum of Science and Nature

The Alaska Museum of Science and Nature is dedicated to the education and exploration of our natural and scientific world.

The museum’s exhibits, education programs and collections help bridge the gap between scientists and anyone curious about our natural world.

We educate and inspire all Alaskans in the areas of paleontology, geology, archeology, zoology, ornithology, botany, and climatology through exhibits and hands on learning.

We serve minority and at-risk children in primary and secondary schools throughout Alaska including the Alaskan bush communities, with applied hands-on science.

We collect, conserve research and interpret natural history materials and data and serve as a resource to the Alaskan community.
