Just in time for this year's running of the Indianapolis 500-Mile Race, the National Art Museum of Sport, 850 West Michigan Street, Indianapolis, has a blockbuster exhibit scheduled with more than 30 paintings, sculptures, photographs and installations on all kinds of races: auto, motorcycle, kayaking, bicycling, running, swimming, triathlons, horse racing.

“Speed and Motion: Racing to the Finish Line” opens with a reception from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. 23 May -- and all of the artists will be attending. Tickets are $25 each and include admission to the exhibit and opening-night reception, light hors d’oeuvres, and two complimentary beverages of choice, followed by a cash bar.
