Our Mission is to leverage this unique historic place that inspires curiosity and fosters learning for everyone.
Our vision is to expand the boundaries of our historical and natural resources by exploring, celebrating, and improving the human experience. Through a heart for the past, a head for the present, and an eye to the future, our doors are always open to a diversity of voices and limitless experiences.

Civic Season
Juneteenth (June 19)–July 6
As a proud partner, Conner Prairie is excited to join Made By Us along with hundreds of history and civic organizations nationwide for Civic Season, connecting Juneteenth to the Fourth of July (this year, we are extending our celebration of Civic Season to July 6!). Learn more about what Civic Season is and why you should get involved.
With programs designed by Gen Z to help young adults understand the past and create a better-informed future, it’s a great time to visit local museums and cultural institutions and show support.
In the coming weeks, we will be offering both in-person and virtual events, beginning with our Juneteenth Free Day and Juneteenth Jubilee. Join us for programs that inspire civic engagement and connect with community.
