Keeping you in tune to Our Community.
Polly Carr, Vice President of Programs, and Taylor Strelevitz, Director of Conversation Programs at the Alaska Humanities Forum, share insights into the Forum's mission and the impactful programs they offer across the state.

Kelly grew up in the Midwest among farms and fertile soils. Outfitted with a B.A. in Communications and a minor in Film Studies, she moved to Nome, Alaska to work for a community-driven, nonprofit radio station. There she became versed in local radio, holding a range of jobs from Program and Music Director to producer and on-air host. Every day she’s in awe of the connection and companionship only local radio provides. When not working, Kelly and her spouse happily spend their time traveling, appreciating the true wild, and creating artsy things.
