  • Epic Art Route Guide by Minivan Adventures
    Epic Art Adventures Route Guide created by To celebrate ten years of Quilt Gardens along Indiana’s Heritage Trail, the Elkhart County CVB is offering a temporary art exhibit featuring over 50 lifelike bronze sculptures by the talented Seward Johnson. This free exhibit ends October 20, 2017. Preparing for Your Epic Art Adventures Before you start on your Epic Self-Guided Tour, you will want a few things: 1) a brochure, 2) this handy Minivan Adventures route guide, and 3) a GPS navigation tool. Get a free copy of the Epic Art Adventures brochure online at EpicArtAdventures.com or in-person at the Elkhart Visitor Center (which is the first stop listed below). Since the brochure does not provide recommended driv- ing or walking routes, be sure to bring this Minivan Adventures route guide along with you to make sure that you don’t miss any of these amazingly lifelike sculptures by Seward Johnson! And finally, we found it helpful to refer back to a GPS navigation mobile app occasionally. We used the Google Maps app. An Epic Self-Guided Tour Start at the Elkhart Visitor Center at 219 Caravan. There is a mural outside the building, and inside the building, you can see Getting Involved*. While you are there, you can pick up maps/brochures.
