The Indiana Historical Society has partnered with the Athenaeum for an exhibit that celebrates the legacy of German-Americans in
Indianapolis.
It explores the many contributions of
these immigrants to the ongoing story of the city through a dynamically
designed approach to text, graphics and illustrations. It highlights
themes of Art/Culture, Architecture, Business and Education.
The Athenaeum was opened in 1893 as Das Deutsche Haus at 401 East Michigan Street, Indianapolis.
The exhibit is in the historic landmark's hallway at the entrance to
the Auditorium - one of the Athenaeum's major meeting spaces. The
installation assists docents in bringing history to life as they
conduct tours of the venue, offered twice a month and by special
appointment to groups, including school groups.
It's open to the public at no charge.
