In festivals and ceremonies around the world, people use masks to express their beliefs about the realm of the supernatural. Masks are used in a variety of rituals; to personify spirits, gods or ancestors; to maintain social control; to heal; to educate; and to mark rites of passage. In celebration of the global diversity of masks and related traditions, the Cleveland Museum of Natural History presents Spirit of the Mask from May 24 through July 28. The exhibit features 95 masks from five continents, 40 countries and nearly a dozen Native American tribes. They date from the early 1900s to 1998.
