A Chilkat robe is returning to Southeast Alaska after spending the last 70 years in a Seattle private collection.  Five private donors bought the robe for $39,000 and donated it to the Sealaska Heritage Institute in Juneau. Native weavers are eager to study the robe and discover techniques that have been lost in the ancient art form. KHNS’s Jenn Shelton reports.
