The 2024 Alaska State Fair wrapped up on Monday, Sept. 2. The 2024 Alaska State Fair opened on Aug. 16, and took place on the Alaska State Fairgrounds in Palmer, located about 45 miles northeast of Anchorage.
The Alaska State Fair hosted a variety of performances, ranging from acrobats that performed astonishing feats of balance, to the final round of the state-wide Alaska’s Got Talent competition. Each evening, the fair hosted a concert on the Borealis Theatre Stage. The concert series included two sold-out shows by rapper and actor Ludacris.

What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Blah Blah
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
