INDIANAPOLIS — The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana is collaborating with the Historical Soceity of the U.S. District Court to create a new Learning Center. The Federal Court Learning Center, expected to open at the Birch Bayhh Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse in Indianapolis in the autumn of 2022, will provide visitors a chance to enjoy exhibits about the federal courts, learn about how judges make decisions, and more.
Artifacts from the Court’s 205 year history will be on display, and there will be an interactive learning opportunity for all ages. The content will be appropriate for Indiana’s new civics education standards, which are expected to go into effect for the 2023-24 school year.
Teachers, groups and individuals will be able to schedule virtual and in-person tours from the Web site, www.insd.uscourts.gov/court-historical-society
