  • Friday, October 6 – Sunday, October 8 – What’s Out There Weekend: Indianapolis

    The Cultural Landscape Foundation is pleased to announce the upcoming What’s Out There Weekend: Indianapolis. The Weekend, October 6 – 8, will offer free tours of the city’s renowned modernist landscapes, as well as highlight other regional gems. The tours will be led by experts in history and landscape design, revealing a largely unrecognized legacy of thoughtful landscape architecture and design in the heart of the Midwest.

    What’s Out There Weekend: Indianapolis and its accompanying City Guide are made possible in large part by grants from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) Art Works and Lilly Endowment Inc., and in partnership with the Indiana Cultural Landscapes Committee of the Indiana Chapter, American Society of Landscape Architects (INASLA). The seven-person committee is led by Meg Storrow, FASLA, Chair, and David Gordon, ASLA Trustee, Vice Chair.
