Conner Prairie temporarily closes indoor experiences for construction
FISHERS, Ind. (WISH) — Lovers of the Conner Prairie may have to wait a couple of months to enjoy some of the living-history museum’s popular indoor experiences.
The museum announced on Nov. 20 that starting Monday, indoor experiences at Conner Prairie will be unavailable for the construction of the new Museum Experience Center.
The Spark!Lab, Anything Can Happen Art, and Discovery Station will be temporarily relocated as their original areas undergo construction. The museum says that elements of Discovery Station will be available in Featherstone Barn starting Jan. 18.
All outdoor experiences will also reopen Jan. 18 with the museum’s new Winter on the Prairie programming. Those attractions will be open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. from Thursdays-Sundays.
The museum’s Welcome Center will be used starting Monday for membership sales, A Merry Prairie Holiday, and Breakfast with Santa. Museum members will receive free admission to all winter programs.
Conner Prairie was expected to release more information about special winter programming later.
