anchorage museum at rasmuson center印象

The permanent exhibits are a must see when in Anchorage. The new Smithsonian gallery will take several visits by itself before you can truly say you have seen it. With the constantly rotating new exhibits, and the community exhibits and events in the common area, there is always something new to see, even once you have managed to give the permanent exhibits their due.

Anchorage has a beautiful museum and its a must see if you are in the area. The history is rich and they have wonderful displays. I encourage any military folks stationed here to go check it out and learn more about where they are living.

The museum handles different aspects: history, people, economics. There also is a great science part. You can try out some things yourself. Especially when you visit with kids it's a welcome distraction. As is the Planetarium.The exhibit on native culture was a good complement to the Alaska Native Heritage Center we visited on the day before.When we visited there was an awesome exhibit on pollution of the oceans by plastic.

We are museum buffs and we LOVED this museum. Impressive structure and building with thoughtful exhibits. We especially enjoyed the Smithsonian Arctic Exhibit and had fun in the Lego exhibit with amazing artistic Lego creations. We also enjoyed the art exhibits especially the stunning Mount McKinley paintings. This is a place you would go back to on each visit to Anchorage because there is so much to see and they have new exhibits. The accompanying Muse Restaurant is amazingly good. One of our favorite ways to help the museum financially is also dine at the museum restaurant. Muse is one of the best Museum restaurants we have experienced worldwide.

Since we started traveling to Anchorage with our son, the Anchorage Museum has become a must visit destination while we are there. The Planetarium is fun and interactive, especially for a little boy who loves all things science. On our most recent visit, our Lego-obsessed 5 year old had to go see the Lego exhibit. My husband and I were also in awe at some of the creations. There was even a Lego station for the kids to make their own creations. I love that our Thanksgiving visits always coincide with the annual craft fair because I get to shop for wonderful souvenirs and gifts while I am there. We usually find parking on the street or at one of the surrounding garages. As long as there is nothing else going on, parking is fairly easy to find. If you're looking for something to do in Anchorage that is not touristy but still fun and educational, the Anchorage Museum is a great choice.

If you want to get in free, wait for the first Friday of the month and go in the evening, from 6-9 pm. This is a popular First Friday attraction in Anchorage. You can also get in free on the first Saturday of the month if you have a Bank of America account or credit card. I get in free with my Alaska Airlines Signature Visa card. But the parking will cost you. I like the rotating exhibits. Exhibits I've seen in the past include plastic trash in oceans, Arctic dunes, cabin fever, and Legos. The fixed exhibits are immensely interesting, especially the Imaginarium. These interactive science exhibits are fascinating for both children and adults. Don't miss the exhibit about passenger pigeons just outside the Imaginarium.If you like art, there is an art gallery. Be sure to also make your way to the top floor to view a timeline exhibit of Alaskan history, from the native people to the pipeline and beyond.You can find a coffee shop inside the museum, and a cafe near the museum lobby and gift shop.

Be sure to see the movies at the museum. We were there for the 50th anniversary of the earthquake. The pictures were great.

Alaskan art is unique and in addition to that there are special exhibits including ones if how the indigenous people's lived. These are life sized and extremely interesting. A must for children and adults alike.

We live in the valley (an hour north of Anchorage) so when we go to Anchorage, going to the museum is a reward for the kids after doctors appointments or shopping. We keep a yearly membership because it is worth the price for our family of 5, then even if we want to stop for something quick, we don't have to worry about getting our 'money's worth' each time. We can drop in for a quick visit between appointments.I homeschool, so within the Imaginarium there are several stations that we can use to teach science. And a the little kids area has come in handy when we have my daughters little brother, there are plenty of stations and manipulatives to keep him playing for hours. My kids LOVE walking through as seeing the art from local school kids, imagining their art pieces in a fancy museum someday.The ONLY two critiques that I have is: I wish that for members they could get some guest passes to use for occasion guests, AND some of the exhibits in the Imaginarium could use more TLC or quicker turn around when out of order.
