The Kaagwaantaan Eagle Clan exhibit will be safely installed in the Jilkaat Kw�an Cultural Heritage and Bald Eagle Preserve Visitor Center in the Chilkat Indian Village of Klukwan. Project staff will receive training as they work with museum, exhibit and film professionals to assess the Eagle Clan collection; repair and clean artifacts; prepare the mounts for exhibit installation; record the oral history documentation; create content for interpretive signs; prepare the exhibit space; and install the exhibit. As they work with museum and exhibit professionals on these tasks, tribal members will gain increased understanding of exhibit development processes and confidence that they can apply the knowledge and skills acquired in the course of this project to preparing and installing new exhibits for the Heritage Center.
