Animal Experience – Interact and Learn Encounter
Self-Guided But Directed
There are many places to see and learn about animals during a visit to the 2024 Indiana State Fair! The Education Staff will help you coordinate your itinerary based on your arrival and departure times. Students will receive a lanyard, pencil, and activity sheets. A sneak peek at a few of the animal activities in which your students will be engaging during their three-hour experience are:
- Livestock Displays – an interactive area, where students will see each species that is shown or on display at the 2024 Indiana State Fair including llamas, horses, rabbits and more. Students will have the opportunity to meet the animals and complete an animal activity.
- Momma Town – located in MacReynolds Barn, this newest exhibit will feature different species of newborn livestock. Live births will also take place each day.
- Daily Livestock Show – visit a livestock show and learn about how animals are judged in competition.
- Goat Mountain – goats, goats and more goats! Many breeds are represented at this popular exhibit, including energetic Pygmy goats, Boer goats, the beautiful Angora goat, and various dairy goats. Students will have the opportunity to see the goats play and roam the mountain.
