Two Sisters: Lily Hope and Ursala HudsonFor hundreds of years, Chilkat dancing blankets have recorded history, clan migration and stories for the indigenous peoples of the Northwest Coast. “Chilkat Protector” serves as a record of this time. We took care of each other, we survived. We are still weaving.
Below is a short video on Chilkat Protector.
