Tour Program
The museum has a very active tour program that served over 14,000 patrons last year, of which half were children. Each semester dozens of university classes benefit from the museum’s curriculum-structured tour program. The various themes, issues, and ideas expressed in a class’s readings and discussions are supplemented and enhanced by a customized tour.

People interested in becoming a docent (tour guide) should contact Ed Maxedon, Curator of Education (812 855-1045) to set up an appointment and find out more information.New docents are trained over a two year period before joining the Continuing Docent program. New and Continuing Docent Classes meet on alternate Mondays during the academic year. The museum offers a docent-led public tour every Saturday at 2:00 p.m. There is a special thematic tour offered on the first Saturday of each month.
