Eva, You haven't given the stack trace of the error or much other context, e.g. it looks like it should be coming from the dispatching thread rather than from the consumer.
HOWEVER, to reinforce what Andrea said, you should not be putting an object of any proprietary type into an Event. There are all sorts of issues, for example the visibility of the class for that type, along with the possibility that the event will be serialized and sent over the network. Also events must be immutable because they are copied to many consumers. If you want to send structured information such as is contained in your Measure object, then please deconstruct it into a combination of String and primitive fields.
