Community Collaborations Alaska Native Artistic Revitalization

Community Collaborations: Alaska Native Artistic Revitalization with Sven Haakanson (Sugpiaq) and Alfred Naumoff (Sugpiaq) Support SAR: https://sarweb.org/donate/ Sven Haakanson, Curator of Native American Anthropology at Seattle’s Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture and Alfred Naumoff, traditional Kayak builder from Kodiak, reflect on ongoing collaborations between museums and Indigenous communities in Alaska. As the jumping off point, they will explore an effort to bring back traditional kayak construction to their community. Many of the culturally relevant fabrication techniques had been lost to Native communities from which they originated. Collaborating with Alfred Naumoff, who is one of the few living traditional kayak makers alive, they will explore how they are collaborating with their community in teaching the next generation about the gathering, curing, processing and making full sized kayaks in their community once again. They started teaching by using model kayaks found in museums across the world. As Haakanson notes, “I have called this repatriating knowledge that was once forgotten and is now being reawakened once again through pieces from the past.”
