The Indianapolis Children's Museum is hosting an exhibit on Star Wars: The Clone Wars until January 2010. You can get the full details here.

http://www.starwars.com/fans/events/news20090317.html

There is no rush to see this right now, but could be a potential summer meeting/road trip if anyone was interested.

Definitely going to see this. Last time 11-11 and I were in Indy we went to the Children's Museum and they had a cool video in the planetarium on the worlds of Star Wars narrated by Anthony Daniels.

We are thinking about going up there one day in May, maybe Memorial Day weekend, anyone else still interested in this trip?

Edit: Just realized that, appropriately enough for this thread, this was my 66th post.

Now "that" is pretty dang appropriate! I'll get with Appo and get back on this one. But seeings how he has a four day weekend scheduled, I am pretty sure this is a "green" for go. >;~)

Looks like they have a Jedi Star Fighter there as well. Watch the video to see how they got it in the building and set up.

I'm from NE of Indy, and I haven't been able to check out this new exhibit yet, but I remember the one that was there around the time AOTC came out was pretty decent, and this one sounds like it's somewhat larger than that. I think they had a Naboo Starfighter on display back then. The Children's Museum as a whole is very cool. Even if you're not a little kid, there's plenty of interesting things to keep your interest throughout the building.

Its official. Appo and I are going up to the museum on Memorial Day weekend. We plan on leaving here Friday, taking in the museum on Saturday, then driving back after we've completed going threw it.... departure time for home on Saturday (roughly) around 3:00 pm. We haven't booked out hotel for Friday yet. Is there anyone else who would like to carpool up with us? Or if you'd like to ride with us, we still have a seat available in the transport. We could share gas expenses, and if the comfort ability is O.K., we could even share a double room. Let us know, so that when we get our room, we can book it accordingly. >;~)

Thanks I'll talk to the wife but I think we already have something going on that weekend. Maybe we can drive up Saturday and meet you. The museum shouldn't take that long. I see they also have a comic book exhibit opening May 2nd. Two of my favorite things (Star Wars and comics) in the same place yay!

Yeah same here...since we went to Indy last year we will probably drive up Saturday morning and come back that same night. But we could try to all go to the museum at the same time.

Now this is really looking exciting! Well, if you guys plan on going up on Saturday morning, I guess we could save the hotel money. (and spend it at the Knoxville Con: Mua-Ha-Ha, I'm always conniving something) LOL! Anyway, we can pick a time to meet that morning at the first rest stop on the way. We have done that sort of thing with friends, many times in the past. What say you all? Does that sound like a tentative plan for now? >;~)

Count me as a maybe right now for this outting. If my girlfriend's house sells in the near future, we might be moving that weekend. But, if I am available, then I would drive up Saturday morning and drive home the same day.

Is anyone still doing this or should we plan for a time during the summer? I know DarthZannah said she was out, and with this thread buried at the bottom of the page I figure it may have slipped out of other peoples' plans as well.

I can't make it this weekend and would prefer to reschedule this for another weekend.
