About the Hendricks County Bicentennial

From the first settlers who arrived here along White Lick Creek in the early 1820s to receiving its official designation as an Indiana county on April 1, 1824, the only Hendricks County in the United States has come a long way in 200 years!

Join us as we celebrate two centuries of history, growth, and community spirit throughout 2024 in this amazing destination we call home. Situated in the heart of Central Indiana, Hendricks County is made up of 12 townships and numerous small towns including Amo, Avon, Brownsburg, Clayton, Coatesville, Lizton, North Salem, Pittsboro, Plainfield, and our county seat of Danville.

Find out how you can help honor our past by scrolling through or even adding to our photo gallery, embrace our present by volunteering, donating, and enjoying or perhaps hosting upcoming Bicentennial community events and other celebrations, and prepare for our future by establishing a legacy project for generations to come.
