Families stroll along the accessible illuminated garden paths, gazing at The Landscape of Light choreographed to holiday classics across the sweeping Allée lawn. Visitors can venture inside the historic 1913 French chateau Lilly House, lavishly decorated with vintage floral arrangements, handcrafted ornaments, and nostalgic holiday heirlooms. Warm up at culinary outposts serving warm spiced cider, Bavarian roasted almonds, hot chocolate, and artisan s'mores kits roasted over crackling outdoor fire pits. Children delight in the magical Glowing Ice Storm tunnel, shimmering color-changing forest groves, and playful projection mapping displays on the grand museum facades. Family Experience & Accessibility: • Stroller Accessibility: Broad, paved accessible pathways throughout the garden loop; all-terrain strollers or wagons perform best during frosty weather. • Nursing & Rest Spots: Private lactation room and family restrooms with changing stations are located inside the main Indianapolis Museum of Art welcome center. • Age Suitability: Captivating for all ages, from infants wrapped in warm carriers to school-age kids and grandparents. • Sensory Tips: The Landscape of Light has dynamic synchronized pulses and swelling symphonic music; tranquil, lower-stimulus strolls can be found along the outer woodland trails. ## Similar picks in Indianapolis - [Christmas Nights of Lights at Indiana State Fairgrounds](https://grassyknees.com/indianapolis/activities/christmas-nights-of-lights-at-indiana-state-fairgrounds--listing-57126c1733f72eb5f84240f6) — Nov 13 – Jan 1 · 6:00 PM – 10:00 PM · Indiana State Fairgrounds & Event Center · All ages · From $35 · checked Nov 5.
