INDIANAPOLIS — Everyone is invited to an all-ages community block party at the Eiteljorg, 500 W. Washington St., from 3 to 7 p.m. Friday June 5, to enjoy live music under The Sails, a DJ spinning between sets and performances by local student groups. Play classic lawn games: Scramble Board, Connect 4, Bucket Ball, cornhole and more. The Museum Café will be open for extended hours with tasty food options, and a cash bar will be outside.
Inside the museum, join in guided gallery experiences and a public tour, and see our featured exhibitions. At 5:30 p.m., watch a screening of the short animated film Things You Know But Cannot Explain, about contemporary artist Rick Bartow (Wiyot, 1946-2016), a 2001 Eiteljorg Fellow.
Admission from 3-7 p.m. June 5 is free, or pay what you can. Stop by the Museum Store, where you can shop for something special and learn more about the Eiteljorg. The block party kicks off the museum’s Free First Friday Evenings that will continue July 3, Aug. 7 and Sept. 4.
