“Of Gods, Men…and Tourists”

04:30 pm to 05:30 pm
Mathers Museum of World Cultures
http://mathers.indiana.edu

The paantu is considered a protective deity by the people in a small Japanese town. But throngs of tourists that come each year tend to see it as a monster. What happens when a town has to think about how to protect its guardian deity? Kate Schramm, a PhD Candidate in the Department of Folklore and Ethnomusicology, and a co-curator of the exhibit MONSTERS! explores “Of Gods, Men…and Tourists” in the free public lecture.
