Specialty Shops and Gifts

The eclectic nature of an Alaskan community is evidenced in our specialty shops: From a sweater shop to a quilt store (which features wares by area yarn and fabric artists) to the kind of sweet, independent bookstores that are harder and harder to find in the rest of the country; foodstuffs like smoked salmon, gourmet popcorn, and our famous Ketchikandies; to a healthy smattering of places where you can find the perfect souvenir … which is called a “curio” here, by the way.
