Conner Prairie

Located in Fishers, Indiana is one of the largest attractions in the region, and one of the most visited outdoor museums in the country, Conner Prairie.   Conner Prairie is home to over 2 miles of walkable paths, and more than 30 buildings.  The outdoor museum is a way to step back in time and learn about history in a fun and interactive way.  If you want to learn more about Conner Prairie or plan your visit, you can check out everything you need to know through their website, here.

Heads Will Roll

October is right around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than with one of the most beloved ghost stories of all time?  The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.  In October, Conner Prairie will turn into a Sleepy Hollow of sorts, as the Headless Horseman haunts the museum grounds.
