Ben Huff’s Atomic Island exhibit opens at the Alaska State Museum on November 5th and runs through January 29th.

Ben Huff is a photographer, who seems to favor haunting landscapes. His latest project, Atomic Island, took him to Adak, a cold war outpost in the Aleutians that time seems to have forgotten.

On this Wednesday’s Juneau Afternoon, Huff will talk about his photographs of Adak, which will be featured in a new exhibit at the Alaska State Museum.

Also on this program:

  • Rock Aak’w is about to launch, the first Indigenous music festival of its kind in Alaska.
    Apela Colorado founded the Worldwide Indigenous Science network in 1989.
  • Apela Colorado, founder of the Worldwide Indigenous Science Network, explains why she believes Indigenous knowledge is the key to saving humanity.
  • How programs like the Juneau Police Cadets and Citizen Academy help to generate interest in law enforcement careers.
