Where to buy small totem pole?

[RiVL520]

We will be stopping in Juneau, Ketchikan, and Skagway. Does anyone know where to buy small (1-3 feet) totem poles. Obviously we would prefer a “made in Alaska” one. Give me your best ideas!!!

Thanks.

Ketchikan has a number of good galleries.  Google "Ketchikan Art Galleries" for a comprehensive list.  Regardless of which port you purchase in, look for items that have one of these tags or stickers.   Those ensure you are getting a piece that was made in Alaska.  The polar bear is "Made in Alaska", the silver hand is "Native Made in Alaska".

We bought ours at the gift shop at Totem Bight State Park in Ketchikan.  They had a huge selection of sizes and designs made by a local artist.

In addition to some of the prior suggestions, the Sealaska corporation (one of our ANCSA corporations) has a store in downtown Juneau -- the Sealaska Heritage Store.  Very interesting to visit.
