All times are local to the venue · America/Anchorage
The 86 portraits in The Hapa Project / Alaska come with handwritten responses from the people pictured. That pairing makes each participant’s own account part of the exhibition, rather than leaving the image to speak alone.
Artist and author Kip Fulbeck began The Hapa Project in 2001. It has since grown to more than 1,200 portraits and personal statements, making the Alaska presentation one chapter in an ongoing body of work.
Fulbeck developed this chapter during a summer 2025 residency at Anchorage Museum. Portrait sessions held across Anchorage produced the 86 portraits and responses shown here.

The project invites each person to describe who they are. The responses can speak to identity, family and experience; together, they offer a view of how participants understand belonging in their own terms.
