I. Osogbo: Art & Heritage Exhibition

The Osogbo School of Art was started in Osun State Nigeria. Spearheaded by Austrian artist Susan Wenger in the early 1950's, the Osogbo School produced many notable artists, among these are Nike Davies, Chief Buraimoh, Chief Muraina Oyelami and Twins Seven Seven. This school was a major influence on the work of Picasso and other contemporary 20th century artists. This is evidenced in the similarity in color palette, cubist figures and shapes, and other prominent features found in works created within the Western European contemporary art world in the middle of the 20th century. This exhibition will feature works by the first generation as well as second and third generations of artists rooted within the ever-evolving legacy of Osobgbo's rich artistic heritage.

Parent & Me

Swimming is a great way to bond with your child! There is strong evidence that physical touching, hugging and playing is critical to a child's cognitive development. Indy Parks Swim School Parent and Me classes are designed for children 6 months to 4 years and focuses on play as learning. In this class, parents will help their child begin to explore the water through songs and games while introducing skills in submerging, floating, kicking and water safety. At a comfortable 1:10 ratio, you and your child will receive important individual attention from the instructor while also benefitting from the group setting by meeting other children who are similar in age and skill level.
