Welcome to summertime—a season you can experience through the sounds, tastes, and smells of the dozens of festivals and special events taking place all around the state. We’re celebrating this sensory season in this issue, where you’ll read about food festivals, art and music festivals, cultural festivals, and everything in between. Hoosiers are celebrating hot dogs, bacon, popcorn, and pierogis—and we’ll share how you can join in on the fun.
