Franklin’s Arts & Culture Listening Tour Continues April 28

The Franklin Town Council Ad Hoc Subcommittee for Arts & Cultural Initiatives continues this month, and you’re invited. 
Creativity and Culture are important tools in community building. As the Town of Franklin embarks on the Master Plan update process, it is the perfect time to spotlight our creative community and create space to have an authentic conversation regarding the future of Arts and Culture, which is why the Franklin Town Council has established this Ad Hoc subcommittee. Your feedback and ideas will be used to inform the direction of arts and culture in the town for the next 10-15 years. 
The next meeting will be April 28th, from 9-11 a.m. at Franklin Public Library meeting room. 
Next month, on May 19th, the group, including Ted Cormier-Leger, Vice Chair, Cobi Frongillo, Chair, and Melanie Hamblen, Clerk, will meet with residents at Escape Into Fiction, at 12 Main St., Franklin, from 10 a.m.- 12 p.m.
