Core Galleries
Always changing to bring you different perspectives on Indiana’s story, curators regularly rotate artifacts and objects on exhibit so that you can find new treasures each time you visit. Stand in the middle of a limestone quarry, make your own earthquake and even savor scents from pioneer Indiana!

These downloadable guides provide a description of the galleries, a list of academic standards that relate to the various galleries, highlights from the galleries, lists of key terms addressed in the galleries and discussion questions that can help educators focus their students.

Temporary Exhibits
The Indiana State Museum brings the best of the museum world home to Indiana by offering a wide variety of changing exhibits. The Ford Gallery, NiSource Gallery, Changing Exhibits Gallery and the Lincoln Financial Foundation Gallery are home to science, art, history and culture from Indiana and the world.

These Gallery Guides are availble for current temporary exhibitions.
