Get a taste of Alaska seafood with King Crab, wild salmon, Prince William Sound oysters, halibut and much more. Lots of shopping, restaurants and cultural events will keep you on the go from early until late. If you happen to be in Anchorage on the first Friday of any month, the First Friday Art Walk has galleries showing special exhibits from a wide variety of artists, and visitors can take in the shows on a self-guided walking tour around downtown.
