Events
There are hundreds of environmentally-related events every year in Indiana, and for now at least I lack the time to find and list that many. So, the focus of this page is on events that are perhaps of interest across the state, rather than local events. Having said that, I'll include local stuff if I have time. Know of something that should be included? PLEASE let me know. Thanks!

Open Space: Art About the Land
Minnetrista Museum & Gardens
Anderson Museum of Art
Since 2001, Open Space: Art About the Land, an annual art competition and exhibition, has encouraged Indiana artists to derive creative inspiration from the land and recognized new artistic creations that celebrate the notion of “open space” as it relates to the land.
This exhibition opened simultaneously as two sister exhibitions across East Central Indiana: at Minnetrista Museum & Gardens and the Anderson Museum of Art. Developed by the two museums in partnership with Red-tail Land Conservancy, a portion of the event’s proceeds will benefit Red-tail’s work to preserve and restore vital wildlife habitats and natural beauty.
