The Public Collection

There is a lot that I love about Indy. I love the restaurants, shopping, sporting events, concerts and museums. Most of all, I love that there are so many free attractions in the city. Last August something wonderful happened-art and literacy joined together in making The Public Collection. The Public Collection is a series of nine micro-libraries throughout the city where anyone can borrow and return a book. They are indoor and outdoor sculptures that Indiana based artists created to house books provided by the Indianapolis Public Library. My goal is to visit all nine this spring and summer with Jeffrey and Soph. We’ve already seen a few and have even checked out a couple books. I’ve shared more info at Indy’s Child on where to find these gems. Let me know if you’ve visited any or if your city has anything similar.
