New exhibit looks at Indiana’s history

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – The state of Indiana will celebrate 200 years of statehood in 2016.

During two centuries as a state, a lot of history and historical events can occur and Indiana is a state with its fair share of significant events.

In order to properly commemorate everything that Indiana has been through and accomplished throughout its history, the Indiana Historical Society put together a new exhibit.

Dick Wolfsie recently stopped by to check out the newest exhibit.

Andrea Giacomelli, with the Indiana Historical Society, takes Dick Wolfsie on a tour of 1816: Indiana Joins the Nation.
