Beyond the Beige: the craft of finding beauty in Anchorage

In this episode of So We Asked, Ivy Spohnholz, born-and-raised in Alaska, shares the winding path of two decades in nonprofits to seven years in the Legislature—and why she "jumped off" to become an entrepreneur. Now the new owner of downtown Anchorage's Cabin Fever, Ivy talks about the makers behind Alaska's products—from kelp snacks and chili crisp to beaders, quilters, and ivory carvers—and why everyday art can change how a city feels.
