The Power of Children: Making a Difference is a permanent exhibition at The Children's Museum of Indianapolis that focuses on the life stories of four children who had suffered hardship borne of prejudice — Anne Frank, Ruby Bridges, Ryan White, and Malala Yousafzai. The exhibit is accompanied by the annual Power of Children Awards recognizing local children in grades 6–11 who have made a significant contribution to the local community. The exhibit has received critical acclaim among Museology professionals[1][2] and received a 2009 American Association for State and Local History "award of merit".[3]
