Sunday October 22nd- Remember When with Joe Landry. 
The second in his series of Fall presentations, Joe uses a combination of photos and film clips that brings the audience back in time to a Franklin we all remember. Audience participation is lively and encouraged.

The museum is open Thursday evenings 5:00pm-8:00pm; Saturday morning 10:00am-1:00pm; Sunday 1:00pm-4:00pm. The museum is handicap accessible and admission is always free. Think of us when you find that vintage object in Grandma’s attic or Grandpa’s workroom. If it has a Franklin story, we’d like to share it.
