🎄 Our stunning 20’ Christmas tree didn’t last as long as we’d hoped, but after consulting with the Franklin Fire Department, it was determined the tree needed to come down for safety reasons.
The safety of our patrons and our historic building is always top priority.

While we’re sad to see the tree go, we’re grateful for everyone who came to see it this season! Thank you for your understanding. We look forward to celebrating the New Year with you! ✨
