Bridge of Stories
Sponsored by the Igiugig Tribal Library, Niraqutaq Qallemcinek is a multi-year local history project that collects and organizes audio stories and related photographs from Igiugig community members to share our rich social and cultural history on the banks of Alaska's Kvichak River. To support Yup'ik language learning, the stories will eventually be available in Yup'ik as well as English.

Stories of yesterday and today, by young and old, will remind you why our village's stories must be told!

Listening to the stories of others … is a kind of water that breaks the fever of our isolation. If we listen closely enough, we are soothed into remembering our common name. -Mark Nepo
