TCC Cultural Programs

To better serve the TCC region, Cultural Programs is developing programming to:

  • Help connect the TCC community to heritage-strengthening activities such as Native Youth Olympics
  • Pass on traditional craft skills
  • Center cultural knowledge development through activities – potentially including theatrical performances/presentations

The program intends to enhance and revitalize traditional cultural practices of interior tribes while providing opportunities for cultural knowledge holders and master artisans to share their unique skills in a multigenerational setting.

Early summer months of 2023 will focus on designing creating, and implementing community outreach programming. We are already developing Indigenous-organizational partners and will be having film screenings next month, but we are still planning the details.  So… stay tuned!

Please revisit this space for program updates.

All programs are located inside the Morris Thompson Cultural and Visitors Center, 101 Dunkel Street along the river in downtown Fairbanks
