Alaska Native Arts Foundation board of directors recently announced the appointment of Trina Landlord as the new executive director. She has been focused on indigenous issues locally and internationally in non-profit, private sector and government.

Before joining ANAF, Landlord worked as a liaison with the Alaska Humanities Forum. She was the Communications Coordinator for the Alaska Marketplace, an economic development initiative of the Alaska Federation of Natives.

Her work on Alaskan issues earned her a fellowship at the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights at the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland. She has also worked at the former Alaska House, a cultural embassy in New York City.

Established in 2002, the Alaska Native Arts Foundation is a 501©3 non-profit organization dedicated to broaden the understanding of, and increase the demand for, Alaska Native art. ANAF’s goals are to be art consultants to our customers and stewards to our artists.
