INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Hamilton County Parks is offering guided tours of the Coxhall Mansion and Museum, providing insights into the Cox Family legacy and their historical ties to the region.

The tours will allow guests to explore the stately mansion and its grounds, as well as view a miniature replica of the Governor’s Palace in Williamsburg, which inspired many architectural details of the Coxhall Mansion.

The Coxhall Guild plays a significant role in supporting the Coxhall Gardens by raising funds to enhance educational and recreational opportunities.

This support is crucial for the maintenance and improvement of the historic property. In addition to the tours, the Posh Picnic event, co-chaired by Jan and Tina, is scheduled for August 16.

This event is a creative gathering where attendees can set up themed tables, enjoy cocktails, and dance to music provided by a DJ. Tim Griffin will serve as the emcee for the evening.

The Posh Picnic not only offers a fun and engaging experience for participants but also serves as a fundraiser to support the upkeep of Coxhall Gardens and the mansion.

The event encourages creativity and community involvement, with themes ranging from ‘Spirit of Indiana’ to ‘On the Road Again.’

Through events like the guided tours and the Posh Picnic, Hamilton County Parks and the Coxhall Guild continue to preserve and celebrate the rich history and beauty of Coxhall Gardens, ensuring its legacy for future generations.
