Indiana Historical Society

The Eugene and Marilyn Glick Indiana History Center, home of the Indiana Historical Society, has undergone a major renovation and re-opened in March 2010 with the launch of its new feature, Indiana Experience. In addition to bringing back the popular 1945 grocery, Indiana Experience uses new technology to immerse guests in stories of the state's past. Enjoy a visit to the Cole Porter room, concerts on the canal throughout the warm weather, great food at the cafe and and unique shopping including a wealth of Indiana-related books, music and gifts at our newly designed Basile History Market. For those seeking Indiana gift items, please visit www.indianahistory.org.
