| Overview
|
| The Chukchi Campus of the University of Alaska Fairbanks will use its $395,000 Alaska Native/Native Hawaiian Institutions Assisting Communities Program grant to partner with the Northwest Arctic Borough in a joint effort to construct an artist's shop and retail store. The Sulainich Arts Center will benefit the residents of Kotzebue, an Inupiaq Eskimo community located 30 miles above the Arctic Circle, by providing a positive alternative for the high rates of individuals dealing with drug and alcohol addiction. The arts center will house a local arts cooperative that will offer members the opportunity to build individual micro-businesses and make a living by creating traditional arts and crafts in a safe environment.
