20+ Face Mask Makers in Indianapolis

We know convincing kids (or ourselves) to wear face masks is easier said than done.

But we also know it’s the safe and smart thing to do! Masks are now recommended for kids and parents in public places under Indiana’s executive order. (As if parenting isn’t hard enough already…here, put on this mask and touch nothing!)

Luckily plenty of local companies have parents in mind – offering up colorful designs, breathable fabrics, and convenient ordering. We thank you! Demand is heavy for masks, so be prepared for a delay in orders and shipping.
