transparency

Federal grants accounted for 42% of Indiana’s general revenue in fiscal year 2025, and state officials say a new public dashboard launched Monday intends to give Hoosiers a better look at how that money is spent.

A protest outside Newfields Sunday afternoon swelled calls for transparency and criticism from the community, after the art museum announced earlier this month that its President and CEO, Dr. Colette Burnette, “will depart.”

The Indiana Black Expo and the Indianapolis Urban League issued a statement Thursday about the “negative perceptions” attached to Dr. Colette Pierce Burnette’s exit from Newfields.
