The Strength of Hoosiers: The Ultimate Sacrifice

This exhibit focuses on the personal experiences of those who served rather than on the wars themselves. Visitors, veteran or not, are invited to share their stories or memories of wartime or their beloved veteran within the exhibit. Join is in honoring our Hoosier veterans. Keep an eye out for more educational programs this fall about veterans and wartime. Exhibit open through November 12th.

Forgotten Monroe County
Take a look at “Forgotten Monroe County,” an eerily beautiful look at Monroe County as nature reclaims the handiwork of man. Photographer Kelsey Daniel explores the fascinating theme of rural decay in a post human context. As her motto states: “Something that is falling apart, decayed, or overgrown has more character than something new – it has exponentially more stories to tell.” Exhibit open through September 19th
