The Franklin Art Association was established in 1971 to provide a forum for the promotion of visual arts; for the preservation of the finest artistic traditions by means of exhibiting works, conducting classes, lectures, and sponsoring other activities favorable to artistic expression and to provide friendly exchanges among painters, photographers, sculptors and those interested in the fine arts.

Regular monthly meetings are held at the New Franklin Senior Center, a large new building located diagonally across from the town common and across from St. Mary's Church, from 6:30 p.m. to approximately 9:00 p.m., the first Wednesday of each month, September through June.

New officers were elected at the Association's May meeting. By unanimous acclaim, the following officers are:

Stacy David, President
Cathy Rogozyn, Vice President
Bill Wallhauser, Secretary
Carol Frieswick, Treasurer
Hannah Liverant-Close, Corresponding Secretary

Your new executive board is busily planning for next year and we would love your input!
