12 Free Days of Christmas in Indy







Don't forget about the free activities going on until Christmas!  Here are a few highlights for the next few days.


Friday, Dec. 19
On the seventh FREE day of Christmas in Indy, the Indiana Historical Society gives to you … a stroll through the “Holidays in the Heartland” display, where you’ll enjoy vignettes about Indiana Santas, holiday food traditions, Christmas tree decorations past and present, and winters in the Midwest. Anyone who has seen the classic film, “A Christmas Story,” will remember the infamous leg lamp. You can buy one just like it at the Basile History Market, along with all kinds of made-in-Indiana products. Free parking.

Saturday, Dec. 20
On the eighth FREE day of Christmas in Indy, the Indiana Medical History Museum gives to you … a tour of the nation’s oldest surviving pathology laboratory (1-3 p.m.). Home to many interesting specimens, the building originally provided physicians in the late 1800s with state-of-the-art facilities to study mental and nervous disorders. Today, the museum uses its more than 15,000 artifacts to educate visitors about the developments that have made today’s advanced medical treatments possible.
