Zusammen celebrates German engineering, performance, and design at the Motor District Event Plaza, featuring an exceptional collection of automobiles from iconic air-cooled classics to modern performance machines while honoring the precision, craftsmanship, and driving spirit that define Germany’s automotive legacy.
Driven To Give is an invitation-only charity road rally for thirty exceptional cars. Departing the Silo Auto Club in downtown Indianapolis, drivers take on the best roads southern Indiana has to offer before finishing in Carmel. Backed by the Woodard Van Riper Family Foundation, which matches every entry, each driver drives for a charity and every mile gives back.
We've covered all our events this year, so for Zusammen, we're turning the lens on the organizations that support us all season: Motor District and its amazing campus, Autogeek (a car care giant based right in Westfield), and T-Fiber's exceptional speed and service. Come see the community on October 10th.
As Driven to Give approaches on October 24th, we're featuring the charities it supports. This week: The Oaks Academy, a classical school serving diverse Indianapolis families since 1998. Matched by the Woodard Van Riper Family Foundation, each entry fee is doubled, and the top poker hands add up to $6K, $4K, and $2K more.
Zusammen means "all-together" in German, and that's the whole idea: bringing the Indianapolis German car community into one place as the season winds down. Porsche, Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, or Volkswagen, all are welcome at Motor District, with inspiring garages, lunch from Big Hoffa's, and live music. All ages welcome.
Driven to Give is filling up with worthy local charities and the enthusiasts who support them. First up: Random Acts of Flowers, a unique Indianapolis nonprofit that delivers recycled flowers and moments of kindness to people in healthcare facilities, more than 170,000 bouquets since 2016. We're excited to forward their mission.
Zusammen is on. Stunning German machinery comes to Motor District on Saturday, October 10th, from noon to 2pm, with lunch from Porsche collector and restaurateur Adam Hoffman of Big Hoffa's, music from Chris Trowbridge, and a rare peek inside the Motor District car condominiums. Everything German enthusiasts love, in one place.
The Artomobilia Driven to Give Road Rally, presented by the Woodard Van Riper Foundation, closes the driving season with nearly $140,000 directed to charities chosen by select entrants. A reboot of the foundation's decade-old Road Rally tradition, it runs from Silo Auto Club through southern Indiana to downtown Carmel.
Before Artomobilia this year, a hundred-year storm flooded Carmel, and some of the first responders who rescued neighbors lost their own property to the same waters. On September 24th, Hotel Carmichael's Somm Smackdown sends 100 percent of funds to support them. Seating is limited and will sell out. Register now.
With the 2026 season wrapped, we're looking ahead to our 20th anniversary in August 2027, and looking back at how far we've come. Our partners at Carmel Monthly have chronicled Artomobilia since 2014, from Lane Motor Museum to our most noteworthy collectors. Take a stroll down memory lane with us.
The season has one last gathering, and it's nearly here. Zusammen comes to Motor District on Saturday, October 10th. Grab your German-car-loving friends, register for lunch, and join us for an array of German hardware, live music, barbecue from Big Hoffa's, and garage tours. The proper way to close the season.
