Get Involved

Asgard Alaska is building something Alaska has never had: an open-air Viking museum and historical campground where Norse history is something you can walk through, smell, and hold. We are still pre-site: we are raising money for land, so the people who get involved now shape everything that comes after.

Four Ways to Get Involved

Make a Donation

Your gift goes to our Land Fund, which will buy the land our museum and campground will stand on. Donations are also tax-deductible to the extent the law allows, and we hold Candid’s Platinum Seal of Transparency.

Introduce Yourself

Tell us who you are and what interests you. Maybe you would like to help at events, teach a craft, or lend a professional skill such as marketing, grant writing, or planning.

Partner with Us

If you are a local business, sponsor, school, camp, club, or a reenactment, or craft group, help us design a shared, history-themed green space that suits your activities, before we cut the first timber.

Become a Founding Supporter

Give $75 to our Land Fund now and we will welcome you as one of our first members when our membership program opens. However, we are not offering memberships yet.

We need all kinds of hands. Historians and storytellers. Planners and builders. Blacksmiths, woodworkers, weavers, and archers. People who can run a spreadsheet, a fundraiser, or a social media account. If you care about history and about Alaska, there is a place for you here.

Whichever path you choose, every one of them moves us closer to breaking ground. If you want to see where they lead, read Our Mission and our Roadmap.

Never Miss a Chance to Get Involved

As the project grows, we will post specific calls for help here: particular skills, particular tasks, with everything you need to know to say yes. The easiest way not to miss one is the newsletter. Get Axe and Anchor, Asgard Alaska’s Newsletter, for news, new articles, and calls for volunteers in your inbox. Enter your name and email below.
