If today's rain and gloom has you down (and the weather looks like it might stay this way awhile) you might want to drop by the Alutiiq Museum and check out our latest exhibit. It's titled 'Orthodoxy in Alutiiq Life' and focuses on the connections between Alutiiq Traditions and the Russian Orthodox faith. Learn about 'Starring', 'Masking', and check out our icon corner. A big part of the exhibit is on Father Gerasim who served the Alutiiq and Russian Orthodox community of the Kodiak Archipelago for almost 50 years. A great many of his belongings are on display in the exhibit. I'm pretty proud of the exhibit, and believe it is the best 'in house' exhibit we've ever created (I'm not tooting my own horn because Jill and Marnie did the lion's share of the work).

Hope to see you soon! Patrick
