I enjoyed viewing all the photos and memorabilia from the big earth quake and the oil spill. There were many antique vehicles and artifacts. The oral presentation was very informative....

The museum is very interesting. It tells the history of the town, gold rush, pipeline and you learn about the 2 major disasters that struck Valdez, the big earthquake and the oil spil from the Exxon Valdez. There are a lot of memorabilia and exhibits. Also nice are the interactive features.Your ticket gives entrance to the museum and to the exhibit 'Remembering Old Valdez' which is located a few blocks away.At the Remembering Old Valdez museum the main subject is the earthquake that destroyed the old town. There is a movie and a miniature version of the entire town prior to the earthquake.We had a great talk with the employee on duty. He told us a few interesting stories and gave us some more tips to explore the town.

Thank you for your visit and your kind comments. We work very hard to make sure that the Museum is an enjoyable experience for all ages, and we are very glad that you and your child took the opportunity to utilize our many interactive activities. I'm very sorry that you didn't feel that you had much opportunity to engage with our staff. Our Museum is self led to give visitors the opportunity to explore at their own pace, but our staff is always happy to answer any questions you may have. If their is anything you would like to discuss I invite you to contact me personally at bcabello@valdezmuseum.org or 907.835.2764 (please ask for Brittany). Thank you again for your visit and we hope to see you again soon!

Before this was a museum, H worked here in the cannery. Some nice pictures and history for all ages. A very nice place to visit to get a bit of history, and see some it from a local view.

Thank you for visiting our small town Museum. I would like to mention that while the Good Friday Earthquake and resulting tsunami did cause significant damage, and the loss of 32 lives, it did not destroy Valdez. In fact residents continued to live at the old town site for three more years while the entire town relocated to its new safer and more stable location approximately four miles away. We truly hope you enjoyed your visit, and that you will return to Valdez again soon.

We spent an hour and a half here and I learned a lot about what really happened here during the oil spill. The media sure was one sided against the oil companies.

These two museums were very informative about the history of the area going back to the founding of Valdez. The part about the gold rush era and the earthquake in 1964 very informative.

This museum occupies two locations. Your ticket pays admittance for both.The first is right behind the library. At this location you get to learn about the pioneering history of Valdez. You are taken back in time with photos, and videos of how life was for those early settlers. You will also find some local artist work.The second location is by the dock. At this location, the focuses on the 1963 earthquake. There is a miniature model of Old Valdez. At the second location, if Tim is there, ask him about the young lady that worked at the crab processing plant...

And we did. A lot of information on the earth quake that took place in 64. A wonderful record of a tragic past.
