The Alaska office of the Arctic Studies Center worked with committed artists and elders from September 2017 through June 2018 to carry out moosehide tanning work in communities and backyards in Kenai, Chickaloon, and Anchorage, and a sewing and beading residency at the Anchorage Museum. The collaboration resulted in the set of twenty-three educational videos presented in the enclosed 4-disc DVD set Material Traditions: Moosehide Tanning and Sewing. These videos are also available on the Smithsonian Arctic Studies Center YouTube channel at: Tanning & Sewing Moosehide - YouTube
