Store
Welcome to the Fortress of the Bear webstore!
Most of our designs are created and produced right here in Sitka by our own staff. As often as possible, we incorporate our own bears into our designs.
As a non-profit 501(c) 3, we truly appreciate your support. All proceeds are used to help care for our bears and improve our facilities.
*We try to pack orders as efficiently as possible, and we’re pretty good at it, so partial refunds will be issued according to final shipping costs! For international orders, email orders@fortressofthebear.org for a shipping quote.
September 2025 Community BEAR HUG Program
September 2025 Community BEAR HUG Program
We love our Community Bear Hug program, in which we donate 10% of proceeds from certain items sold to a fellow non-profit organization in our local community every month!
This program will run during our 5 month open season (May - Sept), and will feature a different local non-profit organization each month.
Check the display case upstairs in our visitor center, or our online store, to find out which local non-profit we’re supporting for the month, and which products contribute towards their donation!
This month's non-profit is... The Fireweed Dance Guild!
This non-profit oversees the Fireweed Dance Theatre, who put on incredible Nutcracker performances every other December, as well as performances around the local community, including basketball games, monthly grinds, Porchfest and other events!
We chose this arty non-profit in honor of our Lead Keeper, Jonté Louis! Jonté is also an incredible dancer, showcasing her skills at many Fireweed performances over the years! We're sad to announce that Jonté is leaving us later this month for her next adventure in Washington.
We're certain that the Fireweed Dance Guild will miss her as much as we will!
Thank you for your support!
