I only stopped by to get a map, but instead spent several hours watching films about Irwin Miller, his home and the architecture of Columbus. The building itself is lovely with modern artistic areas and a fabulous Chihuly glass sculpture. The staff is super friendly, helpful and knowledgable. One staff member played a film for us (alone) to learn about the local architecture. They offer guided tours of the city and the Miller house. Reservations are required for the tours, which fill up quickly. They have information on their website about the tours so you can book in advance. Their gift shop is filled with art and books about architecture. There is plenty of parking in their private lot. Restrooms are available.

I took the tour because I have heard so much about the architecture in this small town. I was not disappointed. I loved hearing the back ground stories on all the buildings as well as the facts about each. Very interesting and a must if you love architecture. I do have one big gripe , which is that the air conditioning wasn't working on the shuttle we took, which was rough since it was quite a hot and humid day. Once back at the visitor center, I did a little shopping. Love the merchandise from local artists. Also picked up a few more brochures about Columbus specifically and some about the region in general. If you are new to the area, you should stop here first so you can plan your visit and not miss anything. Pick out your favorites and take it from there. Enjoy this little town with lots to offer.

They have a mini gift shop with neat shirts, bags, posters things like that. They have a great selection of brochures for all around. Franklin has a GREAT farmers market that will be starting up soon as well as a great splash pad area amphitheater as well as home to the 104 year old Artcraft Theater!!!! Great town just south of Indy!

I was in downtown Franklin for a friend's birthday party. I'd arrived early in order to grab lunch…read moreand visit the nearby Artcraft, but I also had some extra time and decided I would check out some other Franklin establishments. Of course, a stop at the "Festival Country Indiana Visitor Center" was a must as it was about a block of the town square and serves as the area's visitor's center. I will admit that I hadn't heard of the "Festival Country" campaign, a campaign that encompasses Johnson County communities including Franklin, Greenwood, Edinburgh, Bargersville, Whiteland, New Whiteland, Trafalgar, and Princes Lakes. The Visitor's Center is located in a brightly decorated building on Water Street. It's level to the ground and wheelchair accessible, though it is in an older building and the front door is a touch heavy. It's a relatively small location. You enter - to the left immediately is an area for retail purchase of t-shirts, posters, etc. I will admit I was really tempted by an Artcraft poster. You, of course, also have a large rack of flyers and brochures related to things to do in Johnson County. There is a staffed counter on one side, a couple of photo op exhibits toward the back, and a video that plays in an area set up to look like a mini-Artcraft auditorium. The theme here is obviously emphasizing the area's many festivals. It has to be a little difficult right now, however, considering so much is impacted by the pandemic. You were expected to wear a mask when entering and to respect social distancing. The volunteer (I'm assuming) working the counter actually wasn't wearing a mask when I entered, but quickly realized it and put theirs on. This spot also offers free wifi. The photo opportunity was fun, though not particularly wheelchair friendly. However, it's a cute idea that plays off the fact that there's a place you can do paragliding and skydiving in Franklin. The website has a ton of information about area attractions, restaurants, lodgings, etc. There are also some special deals. To be honest, I spent only a few minutes in this actual location. I watched their film. I checked out their sales items. I read through some information about local breweries. I also picked up some brochures. If you're in downtown Franklin and wondering what to do - this is a great place to stop, get information, and ask questions. While there's not much "to do" here, it's a central location to get all the needed info and directions before moving on to enjoy your Johnson County day. It always feels like Franklin, in particular, is farther away but it truly is just one county south and it's a fun little college town. It's an easy day trip with some great spots to visit.

I stopped by yesterday to pick up a map and get directions to a gallery. The maps were laid out on the counter when I walked through the door! The clerks are friendly and helpful and walked me through the symbols on the map. I asked about a restaurant for lunch and was told to try her favorite (and I did). I gathered information about recreational things to do that I didn't know about. There are places that offer horseback riding and zip-lining that were new to me. The Center has a small gift shop with logo apparel, water bottles and stickers. There is also a slideshow running that highlights some of the things to do in the area. A small play area with nature related toys is available for the little ones while parents browse. There is street parking close to the building or a public lot behind the building. The Center is worth a visit and will help you make the most of your day.

I was on the hunt for a public bathroom and this spot is ideally located in the heart of downtown Nashville walking distance from all the action. And, might I add, conveniently located a few doors down from the new-ish Ooey Gooey Cinnamon Roll shop. (side note: holy jamoly, this was the best cinnamon roll I've ever had) I digress, the visitor's center is very clean, well laid out and I was impressed by the great branding and fun visual maps you'll find inside. The whole space seemed very new and especially trendy for the small town area. They had a few style "Brown County" inspired clothing and trinkets for sale on the back wall. Worth noting, the bathrooms were clean. If you're popping into Nashville, I recommend giving the visitors center a quick peek.

The building and parking lot are well maintained and filled with brochures about the county and the entire state! They also have staff on hand to help you plan your adventures if you need them. They also have a special section for the county that has computer search capability. Lots of the information is free and I really like that they also have booklets/magazines that feature themes like antiques for someone who has specific types of places to visit. I wish they had some local artifacts like I've seen at other visitors centers. For instance, the one in Seymour promotes a lot of historical events and people who are from the area. It makes the place more appealing than just brochures. I also think they could have more promotional items for sale to help fund the visitors center. Even without those items, this is a great place to stop for information about what you can find in Madison County/Anderson. Review #3542

It is easy to find if you are approaching from the north and use the business bypass to reach Walnut. Otherwise, you can head north on Walnut passed the SR45/SR46 intersection. The building has its own parking and is much larger inside than it appears from the street. Inside the first set of doors are rows of brochures (free) that you can help yourself to. I grabbed a Visitors guide and a Nature Preserve Guide for my use, but saw maps and festival pamphlets too. Inside the second set of doors, there is a central desk with someone to help you. Surrounding that area are numerous display shelves and racks for picking up merchandise that is for sale. 2018 was the Bicentennial year of the city, so there were celebratory items for reaching that goal like t-shirts. There are also posters, local artisan products like Dillman Farms jellies and salsa, and local popcorn. I found the information available to be quite useful and the person at the information desk very pleasant to talk with. She was quite knowledgeable of the area and was able to direct me to some points of interest that I had not visited before. If you like to explore, or simply to learn more about the area, make a point to stop by here. Review #1977
