Introducing, A-Wreath-of-Franklin!

Upcoming Community Program

Introducing a collaborative community Program: A-Wreath-of-Franklin! Brought to you by your Franklin Cultural community volunteers (Franklin Council and Franklin District), Franklin Downtown Partnership and the Town of Franklin Department of Arts, Culture and the Creative Economy.

Join us for A-Wreath-of-Franklin, a festive community celebration! Local artists, schools, and community members are invited to decorate wreaths in their interpretation of our inaugural theme, "Stories of the Season". Our cultural volunteers will pair community wreaths to be displayed at local businesses throughout the downtown area (December through January). Deadline for community wreath sign up is November 22nd. Click here! On December 7th, 12-7pm, enjoy a "Sip, Shop, Stroll & Roll" event. Community members are welcomed Downtown to vote for their favorite wreaths, shop, eat and enjoy local festivities! Don't miss the fun!

About the Wreaths Just as each wreath is carefully crafted, our traditions and acts of kindness weave together to create a stronger, more united community.  What does our theme, "Stories of the Season" mean to you? Is it celebrating your family heritage? Interpreting a favorite book from your book club? What will your story be? Once the wreaths have been created our volunteers will match the wreath with a local business located in the Downtown/Cultural District area. Wreaths will be placed in windows, with a QR code sign enabling our community to vote for their fan favorite! About the Downtown Event - Sip, Shop, Stroll & Roll | Saturday, December 7th, 12-7pm Franklin's Cultural volunteers and community members are working hard in coordinating festive program elements that will include raffles, custom beverages, music performances and more!
