The Valdez Museum welcomes Juliana Larroza, our new intern for the 2015 summer season!! She has come to us through a grant from the Alaska State Museum. Ms. Larroza is working towards her master’s in Museum Studies at New York University. She has interned at museums in Italy, Coast Rica, Brazil and Argentina. The Valdez Museum has many ongoing preservation projects of which Juliana is hard at work on. She is currently building proper housing for a set of mammoth teeth found in Esther, Alaska. The teeth were donated by Leroy and Marne Churches in 1976.
Above are images from the fund raising festival depicting community support through traditional dance, art, music and national pride! Has anyone else experienced this kind of community support!?

I asked Ms. Larroza if she has ever experienced natural
disaster? She said she had not but her family volunteered their time in Los Angeles, their home, to raise money for the victims of the 2010, 8.8 magnitude earthquake that struck Chile. Ms. Larroza is first generation Columbian with family
in Argentina, Chile, Columbia and Miami. Ms. Larroza’s Aunt and Chilean husband live
in L.A. but have loved ones who suffered the 2010 earthquake in Chile.

| National Pride |
The earthquake in central Chile was the sixth largest ever to be recorded by a seismograph. The quake triggered a tsunami that destroyed several coastal towns in south-central Chile. Chileans
were devastated as their belongings and loved ones were ripped away from them. Juliana
Larroza’s family gathered to organize “Unidos Por Chile,” a non-profit
organization dedicated to raising money and collecting emergency supplies for
victims of the Chilean disaster. Local artists, dancers, businesses and community members
gathered for the “Unidos Por Chile” festival in LA, California.
