WFYI & the Polis Center bring together data and resources to explore important topics around equity, health, education, and beyond. Light snacks and beer from a local brewer will be available. Event is free to attend - but is only for those 21+. Registration requested due to limited capacity.

Join us as we explore the next topic in our Where You Live Matters series: Exploring Education Opportunity and Outcomes in Central Indiana. We will share findings from a new report that explores trends and differences along the education pipeline.

What is Data & Drafts? It’s happy hour with data. It is an opportunity to learn through data trends about a social concern and how it impacts the world around us. Though there is a data presentation, it is less formal than our SAVI Talks events. Participants are encouraged to socialize, network, ask questions, and discuss the presentation findings to dive deeper into the topic - over beer. This is an in-person event at Indianapolis Central Library, 40 E St Clair St, Indianapolis, IN 46204. Doors open at 5:45 p.m., event starts promptly at 6. Ends 7:30 p.m. Parking is available in the Library’s underground parking garage, which can be accessed via Pennsylvania St.

Data & Drafts is a partnership between The Indianapolis Public Library, WFYI Public Media, and SAVI, a program of The Polis Center.

About the branch

As the hub of the Indianapolis Public Library system, Central Library showcases renowned architecture and services. The original 1917 building, designed by Paul Cret and constructed of Indiana limestone in the Greek Doric style, was considered one of the most outstanding secular buildings in the U.S. Its six-story glass and steel-framed addition, designed by Evans Woollen, opened in 2007.
