"Storytelling is a powerful way to foster cultural understanding and appreciation," said Gervois. "This film reflects the incredible depth of artistic expression in Alaska and shares voices that deserve to be heard far beyond the region."

This project continues the work of Legit Productions, whose ongoing docuseries "The Story of Art in America", created by Bois, has spotlighted artistic communities in cities and counties across the United States. With the release of "The Story of Art in Alaska," the production team brings fresh attention to the nation's largest state.

"I have at heart to invite the people to rediscover America through the eyes of its artists — to tell untold stories and to amplify voices from outside the spotlight," said Bois.
