Mike Braun and Micah Beckwith are set to be sworn in as Indiana’s 52nd governor and lieutenant governor at Hilbert Circle Theatre Monday morning. Prior to their inauguration, several events will take place around the city.
An inaugural gala will kick off the weekend’s activities on Saturday night at the JW Marriott. Sunday morning, an inaugural mass will be held at SS. Peter & Paul Cathedral.
After mass, Hoosier Heritage Family Day will take place at the Indiana State Museum from 1 to 4 p.m., giving families a chance to do crafts and a scavenger hunt and hear a story read by First Lady Designate Maureen Braun, who prior to her husband’s inauguration on Monday will host a breakfast at 8 a.m. in the Indiana Roof Ballroom.
Braun’s Inaugural Chairwoman Anne Hathaway said she is excited to commemorate Braun’s and Beckwith’s new roles this weekend and on Inauguration Day.
“A lot of people are going to be here to help us celebrate and launch the next chapter and the new administration,” Hathaway said.
