Evansville, Indiana: Arts and Culture Along the Ohio River

Evansville lies along the banks of the Ohio River as it snakes its way along the Indiana-Kentucky border. You can admire the gently flowing water as you stroll the city’s riverfront walkway, located just west of downtown. This is also where you’ll find some of the best attractions in town, including the Evansville Museum of Arts, History & Science and the Tropicana Evansville Casino, which has a gaming floor with penny slots and more than 40 table games. A bit farther down the river is the USS LST Ship Memorial. Take a tour of its decks and galleys that date back to WWII.

From May to September, you can watch the Evansville Otters play at Bosse Field. The baseball team is part of the Frontier League, a popular independent league serving parts of West Virginia, Kentucky, and Ohio. If you’re visiting during summer, you should also check out Mesker Park Zoo & Botanic Garden and Wesselman Woods Nature Preserve, an old-growth forest crisscrossed with 6 miles of nature trails.
