#designindy

Design Indy is a larger event, featuring the AIA Indianapolis meeting, the USGBC Central Indiana Education Day, and the 40^th Annual CSI Indianapolis Trade Show. Design Indy will feature keynote speaker selected by the AIA. Of course it will also have a great Trade Show, and again this year, an after party featuring relaxing music on the patio. 

LOCATION!

This year we will again be at The Crane Bay (www.thecranebay.com) in downtown Indianapolis, just a couple blocks from Lucas Oil Stadium. This fabulous new venue, what Colts owner Jim Irsay called the “most exciting event center,” previously hosted the Rolling Stone party during the Super Bowl. Over 18,000 sf, a killer patio, and 11 acres of onsite parking!
