Intestine is the natural, indigenous version of plastics like Gore-Tex. It's been used for centuries to make raincoats, hats, windows, drums, sails, canteens, and more.
Learn how to process bear gut in this free all-ages program. On Saturday, we’ll clean and scrape intestine. The first two hours will be targeted for youth. On Sunday, help test for holes, inflate, and hang the intestine in the exhibit gallery. Drop-in participation is welcome throughout.
This program is partially funded by the citizens of the City and Borough of Juneau through sales tax revenues and is sponsored by the Friends of the Alaska State Library, Archives, and Museum.
