An excellent, compact museum. Well worth the small admission price. Very well organized to tell the history of Alaska. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Highly recommend a visit.

Very nice visit. This would be a great place to start your trip to Alaska-by learning some general facts about the many facets of a vast state.

Worth to go and a lot to see about Alaska, it was held by NPS, free admission if you have NPS annual card, and it is super close to port

My wife and I visited the Discovery Center while in port on a 7-day cruise. It was on someone's list of things to do in Ketchikan. We didn’t know what to expect and initially were unsure whether we wanted to commit to a museum and a fee. So standing on the sidewalk outside I checked my phone and saw that the admission was only $5. How can you go wrong for five bucks?
We walked in and one of the Forest Service staff walked us over to the large map of Alaska and helped orient us to what the Discovery Center covered and how geographically the “southeast” fit into the rest of the state. From there we walked through the various exhibits, particularly enjoying the giant, life-size dioramas of nature scenes and depictions of early indigenous life.
There were also sections describing various industries important to SE Alaska, including fishing, forestry and mining.
The centre has a fair size theatre and we had hoped to see the film, but for whatever reason, they only run it periodically and they didn’t show it while we were there (although we did watch the 30 second or so loop of Alaskan nature scenes).
The Discovery Center was an excellent alternative to souvenir shops and other tourist shows. While it is not an exceptionally large museum, it has a fair collection and you could easily spend an hour inside (especially if they show the film while you’re there).

My grandchildren and I enjoyed a recent visit to this Center. It was so informative and beautifully executed. The kids loved the scavenger hunt and I loved the video on bush pilots in Ketchikan. It is free but we made a donation. Well worth the visit. In off season it is open only Fridays 11-4.

No dusty old history here. The visual presentation is fantastic and really draws you in. I learned a lot, and the staff were great.

Great place to visit on a rainy day! They show 8 thirty minute movies in a great theater. The movies are all about the local area.

Hi, I was just wondering about the age group of the children who visit. I will be travelling with a 14 and 11 year old.

I visited with an 11 and 13 year old. They enjoyed it. Both kids did the scavenger hunt and my oldest did the activity to become a jr. ranger. They even swore her in. The rangers were so engaging and both kids really enjoyed the displays. It’s really well done.
