Renaissance Festival: cultural past and future | IndyStar.com

Renaissance Festival: cultural past and future | IndyStar.com:
"Organizers of the fourth annual Indiana Avenue Renaissance Festival feel they are honoring an Indianapolis cultural district's future as much as its past.

The event runs Thursday through Sept. 10 at the Madame Walker Theatre Center, the architectural crown jewel in the Indiana Avenue diadem.
The neighborhood historically nurtured the cultural and business life of Indianapolis' black population during the city's long history of racial segregation.
'We are considered the epicenter for the redevelopment of the Indiana Avenue cultural district,' said Bruce Williams of the Walker staff. 'We are taking the lead on a number of things in the district.'"
