Vice President & Chief Operations Officer Newfields
The Organization About Newfields Newfields is a multi-disciplinary institution that features art galleries, lush gardens, an art and nature park, historic properties, performance spaces, seasonal festivals, and an outdoor amphitheater available to all.

Visitors may be invited to take a moment of respite in the Virginia B.

The Newfields campus extends outside of Indianapolis with another National Historic Landmark property, The Miller House and Garden in Columbus, IN—one of the nation’s most highly regarded examples of midcentury modern architecture and landscape architecture.
