Guests waiting to attend the Annual Alaska State Council on the Arts Governor’s Awards banquet, Thursday evening October 23 at the downtown Anchorage Mariott Hotel, Alaska. The evening was very successful with over 250 attendees. This event was planned to coincide with the Alaska Federation of Natives Convention that was held in the new Dena’ina Civic and Convention Center downtown Anchorage. The members of the Arts Council Board of Directors enjoyed touring the Arts and Crafts Fair where over 200 artists from across Alaska, Canada and the lower 48 exhibited their work.
