All-Star Weekend Showcase – The INDex

We are proud to partner with the Capital Improvement Board of Marion County (CIB) to provide traveling basketball-centric exhibits at the lower level of the Pan Am Tower during the upcoming NBA All-Star weekend.

The exhibits will be located downtown just across the street from the south end of the Indiana Convention Center where NBA Crossover will take place. The 3,000-square-foot space at 201 S. Capitol Street will be known as The Index and will host the exhibits throughout the NBA All-Star 2024 weekend.

The Index will be open to the public 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. daily from Friday, February 16 through Sunday, February 18. Entry will be free. Here’s what visitors can expect to see:

• Going Pro: Basketball Origins in Indiana focuses on Indiana’s impact on the origins of professional basketball. See below for more information.
• In connection with IHS’s Chuck Taylor All Star exhibit, Converse will showcase archival product that traces their deep historical legacy in basketball from the iconic Chuck Taylor All Star, named after the Indiana great, to the later Converse Weapon, which debuted at All-Star weekend in 1986. See below for more information on Chuck Taylor.
• Video footage of Indiana-related basketball history over the decades, including excerpts from the documentary Attucks: The School That Opened A City.
