Ultimate Saxman: Native Ornament Painting, Culinary Tasting

What your day looks like

Join us for an exclusive experience that includes a hands-on native craft, a culinary tasting, and guided tour of the Saxman Native Village. You will get to learn about Tlingit formline drawing from a local artist and design your own native ornament. Treat your taste buds to a wild ride through Alaskan flavors that are anything but ordinary! Dive into a beverage experience with craft beer, fancy wine, or quirky craft soda. Savor the magic of locally sourced goodness as you munch on reindeer sausage, kelp pickles, smoked salmon dip, and other tasty treasures, all crafted with unique flair. These components are complemented by a cultural showcase of Alaska Native art, clothing, and tools. Some of these artifacts include traditional hand-carved pieces by Master Carver, Nathan Jackson, along with other items coming from the original Village of Cape Fox. Your local tour host will teach the Tlingit customs, traditions, and stories of the Elders as they guide you through the exhibits and totem park. The highlight of the showcase will be watching the Cape Fox dancers perform a playlist of Tlingit songs and dances in the Beaver Clan House.
