Projects
Get Involved!
Community residents are invited to participate in team building, workshops, networking, and neighborhood projects to make Fairview a safer, more connected, and vibrant neighborhood.
The Fairness for Fairview initiative includes many different projects to re-envision the Gambell-Ingra corridor. Here are current projects we’re working on right now, and that you can get involved in!
Safe streets and walkable neighborhoods should be available to everyone in Anchorage. Help achieve Fairness for Fairview by reconnecting the community. Comment on the future of the highways that run through our neighborhood. The Gambell-Ingra corridor serves as the connection between the Seward and Glenn Highways, but it is a dangerous, high-speed corridor. It does not have to be this way.
Each year, the Anchorage Museum works with community partners to gather creative minds to promote and inspire place-based design and imagine the future of our city and the life-ways of Northern Regions.
In 2024, we consider how sustainable materials and practices foster inclusivity, safety and community within Anchorage’s Fairview neighborhood. Fairview recently was awarded a Reconnecting Communities Pilot Program Grant funding efforts to reconnect communities impacted by challenging transportation infrastructure.
Come Play! Music, Games, Food and FUN! Every July, the Fairview Block Party is about connecting with our neighbors and friends to celebrate our neighborhood together. Join us for another fun event with local music, dancing, and more… on the third Saturday of July.
This event is made possible thanks to generous sponsors, vendors & volunteers!
Fairviewers write their wishes onto wish panels and place them in the well. They are encouraged to make tangible wishes that someone from the community could fulfill. These can be immediate needs or things they have always dreamed of doing. They will have the opportunity to put their contact so that a fulfiller can contact them.
We have distributed 20 PurpleAir sensors in Fairview. These sensors empower our community of citizen scientists to collect hyper-local air quality data to share it in real time with the public.
Community gardens are where the residents of a community are empowered to design, build, and maintain spaces in the neighborhood. Properties for our Community Gardens have been secured, but this spring it is time to build. We will need Volunteers, Donations and Gardeners. If any of this sounds like you, find out more here!
