Cultural Districts
Art and culture can be found everywhere, but in some places, they can be more populous than others. In these districts, art and creativity are around every corner and open for the public to experience. From statues and public art to music venues and galleries, these districts are filled to the brim with art and culture and help shape the culture of Indiana as a whole.
