Walking Wednesday at the Indianapolis City Market Wednesday, October 24 Indianapolis City Market 222 E. Market Street - all-ages, 6-7:30, free
If you haven’t been to the City Market recently this would be a great time to do so. The tour will be led by Stevi Stoesz, the executive director of the Market and creative energy behind not only Market activities, but a whole bunch of cool things happening in our city. The walking tour will explore the lesser known corners and history of the Market, including a tour of the catacombs. The 54th and College CATH coffee house closed 14 years ago this month, but the original CATH in the City Market is still going strong. I spent many early mornings at the Market location in the eight years that I worked at CATH. Being one of the only people in the dark building was a little creepy. I took a wide berth when walking by the opening of the catacombs. I’ve had a tour since then, and it’s fascinating. Meet on the East Plaza of City Market, the walk is free, but you might want to bring some money if you’d like to stop for a snack or drink along the way and the Tomlinson Tap Room featuring Indiana craft beers will be open for after-tour libations.

-Nora Not-for-profit director by day, music writer by night, Nora Spitznogle reviews music that happened and previews music and events around Broad Ripple Village. Nora managed CATH Inc coffeehouse at 54th Street and College Avenue for seven years. During that time she hosted hundreds of local and touring musicians, both at the coffeehouse and her home. When CATH closed in 2004 and the music was no longer coming to her, she had to wander from her corner of Broad Ripple to see what is happening elsewhere. You can find her at Second Helpings during the work day, waitressing at the Red Key on Saturday nights and prowling Broad Ripple music venues the rest of the time.
