Carla Beam, Board Member, Chairman of the Board, Anchorage Dear Friends, I came to Alaska 34 years ago, but long before then, I felt a connection. When I was little, in the days before DVDs, we had something called a Viewmaster. It was a miniature projector that allowed you to look at photographic slides embedded in little round cards that rotated through the device. My favorite card was of Alaska. I must have looked a thousand times at the photos of mountains, tundra, Native villages, and wildlife. I also heard the stories of my father and his buddies who came north to ski and climb.

  • Arctic Winter Games Exhibit Documents History
    Arctic Winter Games exhibit documents history When George V. Smith began collecting lapel pins from the Arctic Winter Games (AWG) in 1992, he had no idea that this would eventually lead to a museum exhibit. His collection grew with each passing game and in 2001 he began to solicit donations from those who participated in earlier years in an effort to amass a definitive collection for the Alaska State Museum. The collection is nearly complete and totals almost 1,000 pins. Smith’s efforts led to the development of an exhibition on the history and organization of the Arctic Winter Game to coincide with the hosting of the Arctic Winter Games. The exhibition, titled simply Arctic Winter Games, was organized by the Alaska State Museum in Juneau, with Smith as guest curator. The exhibit describes the evolution of the Games, the sports, awards and cultural activities, as well as the Games’ organizational structure. In addition to the collection of AWG-related pins, the show features photo panels, jackets, team clothing, sports equipment, emblems, mascots and other paraphernalia. Smith has also written labels to accompany the exhibit describing the Games and their history. Smith said, “While the pin collection may have been the impetus for building an AWG collection for the Alaska State Museum, it could never have happened without the generous donations of clothing, posters, and other materials by many AWG enthusiasts from Alaska, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Northern Alberta.” The Arctic Winter Games are staged every two years in either Alaska, Canada, or Greenland. Northern cities compete with each other for the privilege of hosting the Games, much like the Olympic Games host cities.
