Franklin Cultural District - A good sample of why #artshappenhere in Franklin

What a way to bring July to a close! Farmers Market, Concerts on the Common, food truck choices, multiple choices of music, and a movie night... Mostly happening on the Town Common but not only there. This is a good reason why the Cultural District like to tout that #artshappenhere!

Diverse?

Yes, from Bollywood Dance to a couple of varieties of BBQ, and multiple selections of live music - check - that is here!

Social life?

Aside from the multiple happenings on the Town Common, we also have a writers group, an active Senior Center, a busy library (including a book club), a local book store with an art gallery, a winery and brewery with live music and food trucks - check - that is here too!
