Polynesian Culture in the Spotlight at the USU Museum of Anthropology
As the Saturday activity series continues at the Museum of Anthropology at Utah State University, the Polynesian culture steps into the spotlight. Activities and information take place Saturday, March 29, at the museum and all are invited.
USU students and members of the public can visit the museum any time during the 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday hours. Guests may participate in a variety of activities related to a Polynesian luau. Visitors from the Polynesian Student union at USU will present demonstrations of dances every hour, on the hour, and children will be taught some of the dances and dance steps.
Visitors can also sample foods that are served at luau. Tours include an exhibit on Samoan culture in the early 1900s.
“Come learn about Polynesian culture and do a little hula,” said museum intern Shannyn Davis.
The USU Museum of Anthropology is on the USU campus in the south turret of the historic Old Main building, room 252. Free parking is available in the adjacent lot, south of the building.
