Morris Thompson Cultural and Visitors Center: 'bridge between cultures.'.(BUILDING ALASKA)
An extraordinary bridge between the public sector and private sector, Native and non-Native organizations, rural and urban cultures is under construction in downtown Fairbanks.
When the 35,000-square-foot Morris Thompson Cultural and Visitors Center opens in fall 2008, it will provide a one-stop facility for visitors and residents who want to explore the wide range of cultures in Interior Alaska.
The center will house the Fairbanks Convention and Visitors Bureau; Alaska Public Lands Information Center; cultural and education programs of the Tanana Chiefs Conference; and Native elders organization, Denakkanaaga.
Space for exhibits, a theater, an artisans' workshop and demonstration area, an elders' gathering area, cultural and environmental classrooms is also included in the design.
"It will unfold a whole range of opportunities between Fairbanks and the rural region around us," says Deb Hickok, president of the Fairbanks Convention and Visitors Bureau.
