About Indianapolis, Indiana

Indianapolis, colloquially known as Indy, is the capital and most populous city of the U.S. state of Indiana and the county seat of Marion County. In 1816, the year Indiana gained statehood, U.S. Congress designated four sections of land in central Indiana as the future seat of state government, contingent on tribal removal. With a permanent collection of 54,000 works, the Indianapolis Museum of Art at Newfields is the city's primary art museum. (Wikipedia)
