The Fairbanks Breastfeeding Coalition organizes and hosts a booth at the Tanana Valley State Fair each year in collaboration with the Lion’s Club and other local sponsors. This booth offers a safe and clean space for feeding and diapering infants and young children. It is also an opportunity to share breastfeeding information and local resources to support families with young children in our community.  Stay tuned for information on how you can volunteer to sign up for a 3 hour shift to staff this booth during the fair.​

This art show had its roots in Fairbanks.  We were honored to host the art show for the first four years in our community.  We now offer organizational support as the art show moves from community to community around Alaska each spring.  We are always excited to help distribute the annual poster selected during the show to be displayed throughout our community.​

The Alaska Breastfeeds Art Show is on indefinite hiatus as of 2022.  

Each year we partner with local agencies and participate in activities such as The Big Latch On​ to celebrate World Breastfeeding Week in August. Check back on ways to engage during the 2021 event.
