==Tourism== Klawock has the oldest [[hatchery]] in Alaska. This industry enhances the runs of salmon, including [[sockeye salmon|sockeye]], [[coho salmon|coho]], and [[Rainbow trout|steelhead]]. A sawmill and area [[logging]] operations are located here. Klawock has a harbor, often used by tourists as a departure point for trips or boating exploration of the bays, inlets, and surrounding islands. Each February 16, the ANB/ANS organizations sponsor the "[[Elizabeth Peratrovich]] Celebration" with ceremonies and a potluck, honoring the anniversary of the passage of the landmark legislation. The city also sponsors a summer festival, the "Celebration by the Sea." A Totem Park has 21 [[totem pole]]s, one of the largest collections in Alaska: it displays original and replica totems from the old village of ''Tuxekan''. The city built a carving shed to house the poles during restoration, which can be visited. In 1998 the city commissioned the construction of a Long House (named ''Gaanì Ax Adi'') with a new totem pole.
