Things to do in Indy area?

[ok_cpu]

Hello Hoosiers,

I'm going to be in the Indy area for work during the beginning of August and the family is thinking of tagging along. Two college age boys and a high school daughter plus wife.

We're pretty flexible- museums, history, and off the beaten path stuff are all on the table. We're probably not looking for nature on this trip.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Food recommendations as well. And bonus points for outdoor, or COVID mitigating ideas.

Thank you in advance!

2. Eiteljorg Museum is great for Native American and western art...

Broad Ripple Brew Pub is great for pub food and really good beer.....thinking of your college age kids...

5. The Eiteljorg looks wonderful

and it's open on Monday, which is a rarity for museums - at least in my part of Ohio. Broad Ripple looks good too.

Thank you!

3. A side trip to Parke Co. Indiana to see the many old covered bridges.

About 60 miles west of Indy.

6. That looks like a great trip

Maybe we can leave the kids in Indy and take a ride out that way. Thank you for the suggestion!
