Artists and writers in the Anchorage Museum’s new book, How to Survive: Practicing Care in a Changing Climate, consider how love, protection, nurturing, and sharing can help us navigate climate change. In celebration of National Native American Heritage Month, Alaska Native contributors Erin Ggaadimits Ivalu Gingrich, Laureli Ivanoff, and Jen Stever will read their work and share text by the late Alaska artist Jenny Irene. A brief Q&A will follow.
The program is organized in collaboration with the Alaska Center for the Book, Alaska’s affiliate of the U.S. Library of Congress Center for the Book.
How to Survive, edited by Anchorage Museum chief curator Francesca Du Brock, is a companion publication to the How to Survive exhibition, which was on view October 2023 – January 2025. Contributors to this anthology connect Alaska stories to global contexts, considering ideas of interdependence, place-based knowledge, repair, and activism, offering novel ways of understanding our responsibilities to each other and to the planet. Copies are available at the museum store, and will also be available to purchase at the program.
6-7 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 22, in the Auditorium. Free, registration recommended but not required.
