Child adoption exhibit heading to Franklin

A traveling exhibit that depicts children in need of adoptive homes will be in Franklin this month.

The Indiana Heart Gallery, a traveling exhibit featuring portraits of the children, will be available for viewing through Monday at the Johnson County Courthouse, 5 E. Jefferson St., Franklin. The portraits can be viewed 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

The Indiana Department of Child Services uses the gallery to bring attention to children in foster care.
