Context edit
The Children's Museum of Indianapolis is the largest children's museum in the world and a leader in family learning. The museum's permanent collection of over 110,000 objects is subdivided into the American Experience Domain, the Natural Domain, and the Cultural Domain. Objects and exhibits cover a variety of topics, from paleontology and archaeology to astronomy, world cultures, and American history.
Presentation edit
In February and March of 2011, The Children's Museum will upload the first set of a series of images as part of a larger content donation and ongoing relationship with Wikimedia. The first set of images were hand chosen by collections staff and vetted by a variety of departments to ensure that they are free of copyright restrictions. The images include best-of-type representations of the museum's permanent collection and will be useful for a number of sources within Wikimedia.
Other images affiliated with this ongoing collaboration include those taken by Wikipedians during Backstage Pass events occurring in 2010 and 2011.
