Explore a lively tale about a boy taken by salmon after he disrespected them. Observe a carved salmon-chief mask, then settle in to hear the story of Shanyaak’utlaax told with rhythmic voices and gentle music. Feel the splashy sounds, vivid colors of the mask, and the hush of listeners as Alaska’s indigenous sounds wash over you. Children will listen, imagine scenes, and connect stories to sounds and objects.

Kids ages 4 and up.

Imagine walking from the exhibition into a workshop where you dream up how to become famous and see your name on a street plaque. Children sketch bright ideas, cut colorful collage pieces, and stick them onto a cardboard plaque. They paint letters, add textures, and play with shapes and sounds as they personalise their mini street sign. The result is a small ‘success panel’ to hang on a wall and a lively collage celebrating their future fame.
