The Smithsonian Institution’s new Arctic Studies Center combines a cultural resource and study center, a seven-screen synchronized orientation film, an immersive soundscape listening space, and a 10,000 square-foot gallery interpreting over 600 objects and the Alaskan Native communities that produced them. The project offers an intimate and multifaceted perspective representing a reunion of cultural heritage with contemporary Alaskans.
