Franklin Cultural District: poetry, overdose vigil, Farmers Market and more #artshappenhere in Franklin

School has opened, Labor Day weekend is here, clubs and groups are returning to regular meeting as we leave summer behind. Try People's Poetry at Escape into Fiction, or stop by the overdose awareness day vigil on the Town Common today.

Come to the Farmers Market on the Town Common this Friday. The Library has an activity for the kiddos. And of course, there are a lot of options for other things to do as #artshappenhere in Franklin all leading to the State Primary on Tuesday. If you haven't voted by mail or in person, vote at Franklin High School from 6 AM to 8 PM. This state primary election helps to confirm our commitment to how we chose to govern ourselves.
