Katirvik Cultural Center: A Gathering Place for the Bering Strait
The tribally owned Katirvik Cultural Center preserves and shares the Indigenous knowledge, stories, events, and cultural life of Alaska’s Bering Strait region.
Field notes
Katirvik’s public site links institutional history to a working cultural program: visitors can move from information about the center and its Elders Advisory Committee to events, collections, educational offerings, and community engagement. The center describes itself as tribally owned and operated by 20 tribes in the Bering Strait region, with a focus on Inupiaq, Central Yup’ik, and St. Lawrence Island Yupik cultures. Its collection menu specifically names audio, Elder’s Stories, guest lecturer videos, and partnerships.
