Our Mission: To be a museum for people, place, planet, and potential, in service of a sustainable and equitable North, with creativity and imagination for what is possible. Our Vision: A place of ideas and transformation, narratives and perspectives, resilient and relevant communities, responsive to a rapidly changing world toward a better future for all. The Anchorage Museum Association holds a contract with the Municipality of Anchorage, which owns the facility and the collection. The Anchorage Museum Association is a private nonprofit that has sole authority to operate the museum, maintain the facility, raise funds, and deliver programs in accordance with the mission.
