Families can participate in fun and informative activities related to physical, emotional, and mental health for children. Hosted by the Museum of Broken Relationships Indianapolis.

Have you ever wondered how a broken bone mends, why some things make us feel sad, or how we heal and grow from loss? During this care fair for children and their families, hosted by the Museum of Broken Relationships Indianapolis and sponsored by Indianapolis Central Library, children can participate in a variety of hands-on activities to explore and learn about caring for physicals and emotional health. From how to properly brush their teeth and maintain a healthy heart, to understanding how the brain processes emotions and hearing stories about self-care, this pop-up care fair is a fun afternoon of informal learning that families can attend together.

The Museum of Broken Relationships Indianapolis is a unique partnership between the IUPUI Museum Studies Program and the Museum of Broken Relationships in Zagreb, Croatia. The main exhibit, located in Herron Galleries on the IUPUI campus, showcases local and international objects and stories that convey the grief, humor, growth, and love experienced through broken relationships. The exhibit is free and open to the public during normal gallery hours February 8, 2023, through April 22, 2023. Learn more about the exhibit.

The exhibition is made possible by the Edgar and Dorothy Fehnel Chair in International Studies fund, the IU School of Liberal Arts, and the IUPUI Center for Service and Learning.

About the branch
