In this Tuesday, August 7, 2018 photo, mask maker Khagen Goswami wears a mask of Hindu monkey god Hanuman at Samaguri Satra, a Vaishnavite monastery, in Majuli, India. Vaishnavite practice is credited with preserving the culture of mask-making, an integral part of the dance dramas or Bhaonas. At the Samaguri Satra, the monks use locally available bamboo, cane, clay, paper, jute and cow dung to shape and paint masks depicting characters from Hindu mythology. (Photo by Anupam Nath/AP Photo)
