Madeline F. Elder Greenhouse and Shop
As part of the Oldfields estate, the Madeline F. Elder Greenhouse originally provided plants and produce to the residents. The first glasshouses were built in the 1920s and the present structures were constructed in the late 1940s. Fully renovated, the Greenhouse continues working into a new century. Open year-round, visitors may enjoy the pleasures of live plants, while learning from the knowledgeable staff and volunteers.

"As I took my first picture, I wondered about the kind of institution that devotes this level of design and care to the place where visitors leave their cars. The obvious answer is that, to the Museum, beauty, in all its forms, is a priority."
"Our favourite garden of the whole tour was the garden that is home to the Indianapolis Museum of Art...if you have the chance to visit - be sure to include this gem during your stay."
"The gardens surrounding the Indianapolis Museum of Art are a shimmering emerald. This is the oasis that every city needs when escaping concrete and steel."
