Pratt Museum

The Pratt Museum in Homer, Alaska, is a regional natural history museum focused on the landscapes, communities, wildlife, and human history of Kachemak Bay. Growing from the Homer Society of Natural History, incorporated in 1965, it opened in 1968 on land donated by Sam and Vega Pratt, with Sam Pratt serving as first volunteer curator and Hazel Heath also credited with its founding. Its exhibits connect Native traditions, homesteading, fisheries, contemporary art, and the bay’s marine and terrestrial environments. Outdoor features include a historic cabin, nature trail, and expanded botanical garden, making it a central institution for understanding Kachemak Bay.
