Feb 12 - April 11 With Malice Toward None: The Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Exhibition [Library of Congress] and With Charity for All: The Lincoln Financial Foundation Collection
The Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Exhibition is traveling to just five U.S. cities. The exhibit features the Bible upon which Lincoln and, most recently, President Obama took the oath of office; the contents of Lincoln's pockets the night he was assassinated; as well as letters, photographs, maps, sketches, political cartoons, period engravings, speeches and artifacts from Lincoln's political career and presidency. This exhibition was made possible through the generous support of Union Pacific Corporation. The Lincoln Financial Foundation Collection highlights personal artifacts that paint a picture of an ordinary man who rose to become, perhaps, the greatest leader in American history. This $20 million collection was named the largest collection of Lincoln memorabilia, etc. in the world prior to it being gifted to the State of Indiana last fall.

School House Rock! presented by Lilly Apr 5 - 16
This is the inaugural production of the Indianapolis Children's Theatre, operating under the auspices of the Indianapolis Civic Theatre. The pop-culture phenomenon comes to the theatre stage instructing a whole new generation to "Unpack Your Adjectives" and "Do the Circulations." The Emmy-Award-winning 1970s Saturday morning cartoon series "Schoolhouse Rock" taught history, grammar, math, science and politics through clever, tuneful songs. The live musical version tells the story of Tom, a nerve-wrecked school teacher anxious about his first day of teaching. Schools planning to attend will receive a classroom study guide that includes in-depth curriculum associations in addition to pre- and post-performance activity ideas and projects.
A Flea in Her Ear May 7 - 23
