The Dorothy G. Page Museum is named for the woman known as the “Mother of the Iditarod,” who organized the inaugural event in correlation with the centennial celebration of America’s purchase of the state of Alaska. Following her death, the Wasilla Museum was renamed in her honor. Today, it showcases exhibits tracing the city’s social and cultural history, from its early Native Athabaskan days through its industrial and mining heritage in the 19th and 20th century. Several galleries showcase exhibits highlighting the history of the Willow Creek Mining District, the Knik Trading Company, and the history of the Iditarod race. Temporary exhibits are showcased periodically, and field trips and tours are available for school groups and organizations.
