Bear Country ⋅ Sitka ⋅ Native-owned
Kris Karsunky and Derek James just bought this business this summer. They changed the name and had a Yakutat artist create their formline bear paw logo. Right now it is a small convenience store with the addition of a coffee menu.
They currently have one youth Tlingit artist with formline prints in the store. Their goal is to keep adding more native artwork to sell in the store. They are excited to keep expanding and making this a place that locals want to come shop at!
