The USU Museum of Anthropology Looks at Famous Political Revolutions

The Museum of Anthropology’s “Saturdays at the Museum” series at Utah State University next explores the ways in which a variety of cultures, including our own, have been influenced by political revolutions. Activities take place Saturday, June 27, at the museum.

“The political structure of a country can enormously affect people’s livelihoods,” said Melissa Bafuss, a Saturday program worker. “Reviewing past political revolutions can open an individual’s understanding of why people of a different culture act, express and interpret things based on their particular perspective.”
 
Presentations covering several famous revolutions will start at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., and children’s activities will be available throughout the day.
 
USU students and members of the public are invited to the museum any time during the 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday hours.
 
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. For more information on this event, call museum staff at (435) 797-7545 or email the museum at anthro.museum@usu.edu.
