At First Alaskans Institute our work is centered around advancing Alaska Native priorities and communities. We welcome you to our virtual home, a place to gather, share stories and celebrate our Alaska Native peoples and cultures. As a community we are stronger when we work together, sharing and providing for each other. Join us as we work towards our vision: Progress for the next 10,000 years...
Our team is also excited to share that we've changed locations from downtown to midtown Anchorage, on the ancestral and unceded traditional territories of the Dena'ina Peoples, Dgheyey Kaq'. Our Office Warming Reception will be held on Friday, July 18th, 2025 from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
We’re inviting you and your community to join us at our new location: 2525 C Street, Anchorage, Alaska 99503 on the 4th floor, suite 400. There will be a food truck in the parking lot, artist vendor tables in our atrium, a dance group in our office on the 4th floor, and FAI merch items.
Our team can’t wait to show the community our new place that feels a little brighter and has plenty of room for parking. Join us as we open this space to connect!
