The hopes and fears of people long dead played out in relation to their gods. For this Saturday Sampler Tour, we will visit representations of seven of these gods and goddesses in the Kelsey Museum—including Isis, Aphrodite, Bacchus, and others—and see if we feel a connection.

This event is free and open to all visitors. If you have any questions or concerns regarding accessing this event, please visit our accessibility page at https://myumi.ch/zwPkd or contact the education office by calling (734) 647-4167. We ask for advance notice as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.
