SUMMARY:Yokai Parade: Supernatural Monsters from Japan at Central Connecticut State University
DESCRIPTION:Japanese folklore\, art\, and mythology take center stage this summer as Central Connecticut State University welcomes Yokai Parade: Supernatural Monsters from Japan\, a traveling exhibition from the Japan Foundation. The exhibition will be celebrated with an opening reception on June 23 from 5 pm to 7 pm on the second floor of the Elihu Burritt Library in New Britain. \nPresented in partnership with the Consulate General of Japan in Boston\, the exhibition explores the fascinating world of yokai—supernatural creatures\, mysterious beings\, and unexplained phenomena that have captured the imagination of people in Japan for centuries. Special guest remarks will be delivered during the opening reception by Consul General Seiichirō Takahashi\, the head diplomat of the Consulate General of Japan in Boston. \nThrough historical and contemporary works\, Yokai Parade examines how these legendary figures have evolved over time. The exhibition features traditional picture scrolls\, colorful nishiki-e woodblock prints\, toys\, films\, and other media that illustrate the enduring influence of yokai in Japanese culture. Visitors will discover how creatures once associated with fear and mystery gradually became beloved and recognizable figures in popular culture. \nOrganized by the Japan Foundation as part of its international traveling exhibition program\, the exhibition highlights Japan’s rich artistic traditions while promoting cultural understanding and exchange. \nThe Elihu Burritt Library is located on the campus of Central Connecticut State University\, 1615 Stanley Street\, New Britain\, CT 06050. Parking for the event will be available in the Student Center parking lot. \nAdmission to the opening reception and exhibition is free. \nFor more information\, visit https://www.ccsu.edu/event/yokai-parade-exhibition-opening.
