SUMMARY:"Cold Mountain Path" Book Launch with Homer Author Tom Kizzia
DESCRIPTION:Please Join Us for the Cold Mountain Path Book Launch with Author Tom Kizzia Friday\, November 5th\, 2021 @ 7 pm. \nHomer author Tom Kizzia’s new book is a history of the ghost town decades in McCarthy\, Alaska. Cold Mountain Path revisits the iconic story-rich landscape of his national bestseller\, Pilgrim’s Wilderness. The story begins with the last copper train leaving the Wrangell Mountains during the Great Depression\, and runs through the creation of Wrangell-St. Elias National Park in the 1980s\, including a full account of the 1983 mass shooting that brought the ghost town period to an end. \nTom will read from his new book and answer questions at this book launch\, so come join us\, or tune in for the event via Zoom. The Homer Bookstore will have copies of Cold Mountain Path for signing afterward. Light refreshments from Red Bird Kitchen will be provided. \nSpace is limited for this event.  Masks\, please. RSVP to reserve a seat or to receive the zoom link by contacting: hatkins@prattmuseum.org or call 907.435.3335. RSVPs will open on 10.6.21. \nTom Kizzia\, 10 August 2012\, near Homer\, Alaska\nTom Kizzia first moved to Homer in 1975\, fresh out of college\, to become editor of the Homer Weekly News. After a spell working for the Anchorage Daily News in Anchorage\, he returned to Homer in 1989 to raise a family in his cabin near McNeil Canyon. As the “Homer bureau” for the Daily News\, he traveled all over Alaska covering stories for the next 20 years. \nTom’s first book\, The Wake of the Unseen Object\, emerged from his visits to remote Alaska Native communities during a time of great transition. His second\, Pilgrim’s Wilderness\, a non-fiction account of a troubled family in the Wrangell Mountains\, was a national bestseller and later named Alaska’s best true crime book by the New York Times Book Review. Tom was named Artist of the Year in 2013 by the Homer Council of the Arts.

SUMMARY:2021 Pratt Museum Quilt Raffle: A Stunningly Beautiful Celebration of Homer's Creative Spirit and Natural History
DESCRIPTION:For over 40 years\, the Kachemak Bay Quilters have produced handmade quilts for the Pratt Museum\, drawing on the artistic strength of local quilters and maintaining a vital community tradition. Each year the quilters pick a theme that celebrates the region’s natural history\, history\, and each other\, creating one special quilt to be raffled in support of the museum’s operations. Using the simplest of tools – a needle and thread in hand\, and beautiful fabric – together they create a stunningly beautiful legacy of Homer’s creative spirit. Many of these quilts have become part of the museum’s permanent collection.  This year for the first time\, two quilts are included in the raffle. One is themed around Alaska’s Nothern Lights and the second is themed around Alaska’s Wildlife. Tickets are $5 each or $20 for five. All proceeds benefit the Pratt Museum\, kindness of the Kachemak Bay Quilters. \nJoin us at the Pratt on Friday\, December 3rd from 4-5 pm for an Afternoon Tea and Quilt Raffle Drawing Event.  You do not need to be present to win. \n

SUMMARY:Garden and Forest Tours
DESCRIPTION:Botanical Garden\, Homestead Garden and Forest Trails Tours \nMay 26 – September 3   \nThursdays and Saturdays   \n11am – Noon and  4:00 pm to 5:00 pm   \nCome out and join the Pratt Museum and Park Garden Crew this summer for guided tours of the Botanical Gardens\, Homestead Garden\, and Forest Trails. We will offer an interpretive introduction to the broader\necology of the Kachemak Bay region and describe the ways that we\nincorporate the plant communities of the region into the Botanical Garden\nat the Pratt Museum. Botany experts and novices alike can find delightful\ninsights as we explore the interactions and dynamics of our local\necosystem. \nThe Homestead Garden is an ever-evolving exhibit featuring many\nclassic fruits and vegetables and a few specific local varieties that have\nbeen treasured by the local community for generations. We will explore\nsome of the basics of plant propagation\, discuss the benefits of perennial\nfood crops and talk about food preservation and storage. Snacking is\nencouraged! Throughout the season\, something is always worth sampling\nout of the garden\, though the real delight is black currant season in the\nlate autumn. \nThe Forest Trails showcase the ecological context in which the Pratt\nMuseum and Park is embedded. These trails wind through one of the\nlarger remaining wild spaces in downtown Homer\, and have some of the\nlargest remaining trees in the area. Wildlife is abundant and the plant\ncommunities are diverse. There are several loops of varying distance that\nwind through the nearly 10 acre forest. A meander through these woods\nwith one of our guides will offer an opportunity for wildlife sightings\,\nlistening to songbirds and discussing the ethnobotanical and historical\nuses of plants that live in our region.

SUMMARY:Special Exhibit Opening\, Protection: Adaptation & Resistance
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the opening reception of “Protection: Adaptation & Resistance\,” curated by Asia Freeman from 4 – 6 PM on Saturday\, June 11th.  The artist’s talk begins at 5 PM. \n“In times of pandemic\, climate crisis\, and ongoing assaults on human rights\, how are Indigenous Alaska artists today strengthening self and community\, and guiding the next generation from surviving to thriving?  Protection: Adaptation and Resistance centers Indigenous ways of knowing. Working within intergenerational learning groups and as collaborators in vibrant community networks\, Alaska’s Indigenous artists are invigorating traditional stories and proposing resilient new futures through design\, tattoo\, regalia\, and graphic arts. Thirty artist projects presented in this exhibition elevate collaboration\, allyship\, and community as tools of resistance\, adaptation\, and cultural affirmation.”   Asia Freeman\, Curator

SUMMARY:Alaska World Arts Fest First Friday
DESCRIPTION:The Pratt Museum and Park is hosting an exhibit in collaboration with the World Arts Festival in Homer\, AK. The exhibit is opening September 2 at our First Friday in the downstairs gallery where admission will be free. The exhibit is entitled Universal Connections: Bringing Us Together and is a mix of photographs from around the world curated by Sarah Borgen. ​It is a collaborative exhibit showcasing artwork from local artists. \nMore on the theme of Universal Connections \n\nThroughout our lives\, we get caught in a whirlwind of concerns\, thoughts\, and anxieties only to briefly pierce the interpersonal veil and see ourselves in the eyes of others. These insights can define our lives by how we sense interconnectivity with all people and each person’s unique experiences of life.  \n\n\n“Universal Connections: Experiences Bringing Us Together” is a collaborative photo exhibit of moments where we see ourselves in each other\, a shared encounter of being human.
