The Tikahtnu Ballroom features both the elegance and style of a big room and the capability to allow for more intimate gatherings. The Tikahtnu splits into six sections, allowing for a small, breakout session in one portion while the main event unfolds in the main room. This setting was best displayed during the Alaska Federation of Natives conventions in 2008 and 2009.
