Five in February

February is a great month to stay inside and visit some of downtown Indy’s best attractions and venues. Here are our top five picks for family-friendly fun this February.

Get in on the action

Head inside and watch some of Indy’s best sports teams in action. Catch one or more of the three Indy Fuel hockey games at the Indiana State Fairgrounds February 8, 14 and 25. Cheer on the Pacers at one of five home games February 4, 6, 9, 22 and 27.

Warm up inside a museum

New for 2015, the Indianapolis Museum of Art is offering Family Day the first Saturday of every month. Enjoy themed museum programming ranging from hip hop to skateboarding. On February 7, celebrate the Year of Sheep by contributing to a LEGO mandala, designing a lantern and participating in a sumi-e workshop.

See artwork from Indiana residents

The Indiana State Museum will showcase art from more than 60 Indiana artists at the 11th annual Indiana Art Fair on February 15. Gather the family and browse an array of unique local art including ceramics, photography, glass, sculpture and painting.

Go on a fun run
