During your visit to our hotel in Anchorage, be sure to visit the Anchorage Museum at Rasmuson Center. The Anchorage Museum at Rasmuson Center is the largest museum in Alaska that houses a variety of art and cultural exhibits that relate to the region. With very humble origins, the museum featured only a small borrowed collection of Alaskan art that was managed by two employees when it originally opened in 1968. Since then the museum has grown vastly in size.

Today two permanent exhibitions in the museum are ‘Anchorage 1910 – 1935’ and ‘Art of the North’. ‘Anchorage 1910 - 1935’ allows visitors to view photographs and read stories of the Anchorage residents who molded the community in to what it is today. ‘Art of the North’ on the other hand showcases life in Alaska, landscape paintings, works by contemporary Alaskan artists, and early views of Alaska. This collection consists of seven galleries that are located on the ground floor of the museum. Beyond these permanent exhibits, the museum hosts a range of different collections that vary in theme that often come from other museums and can represent cultures from all over the world.

Guests can also visit the Anchorage Museum Shop that sells a variety of items including accessories, audio materials, crafts, art, stationery and more. The shop even has an online presence so that guests can order from their homes should they not wish to carry the goods they purchase by hand. The museum also features a café that offers lunch, desserts and coffee.

Hotels in Anchorage such as the Millennium Alaskan Hotel Anchorage, offer its guests easy access to this venue and many other destinations located in downtown as the hotel is only 10 minutes away from this vibrant area.
