Chief Janice George holds a hereditary chieftainship to Sen̓áḵw, the village atop of which the Museum of Vancouver is currently situated. George studied weaving after completing a Guest Curator position at MOV for Honouring the Basketmakers in 2001/2002. This collections research led to the 2017 book, Salish Blankets: Robes of Protection and Transformation, Symbols of Wealth, co-written with her husband, Skwetsimeltxw (Willard "Buddy" Joseph), and Canadian Museum of History Curator Leslie Tepper. George and Joseph studied weaving in Washington State under Bruce subijay Miller and Susan Pavel, and used these teachings to begin the Squamish Nation 2003 weaving revival.
The recent Coast Salish weaving revivals have been important in reclaiming these cultural forms. The students of L'hen Awtxw Weaving House on the Capilano Reserve, founded by George and Joseph, now number in the thousands. Contemporary Squamish textiles are made from home-grown and homespun sheep wool, mountain goat wool, or commercial wool and wool blends.
