WE APPRECIATE YOU!
Individual DonorsThe Indiana State Museum and Historic Sites donor societies were created to recognize the extraordinary generosity of those who support our work and enable us to serve as a catalyst for informal lifelong learning that connects the stories of real people, places and things. Our stone, steel and icon donor memberships are the foundation for our donor societies.
The Indiana Icon: The State FlagThe Indiana State Museum and Historic Sites donor societies are named to reflect the elements of our state flag.
The TORCH on the flag stands for liberty and enlightenment; the RAYS represent their far-reaching influence. The 13 STARS in a circle represent the original 13 states; the five STARS in the circle represent the next five states; the large STAR is Indiana, the 19th state.

The Doris Kenninger Stump Volunteer of the Year Award was created in 2024 in memory of Doris Kenninger Stump with a generous gift from the Jaquish and Kenninger Foundation.
The Doris Kenninger Stump Volunteer of the Year Award annually honors one outstanding volunteer from the Indiana State Museum and Historic Sites. Award recipients reflect the same devotion, enthusiasm and Hoosier pride that motivated Doris to volunteer many years assisting the museum’s fine arts curator in documenting the collection. Doris strongly believed that the museum provides enduring educational opportunities for Hoosiers.
