The Franklin Cultural Arts Center is an idea born out of a vision to enhance the community by creating a collaborative space for community groups, individual artists and visiting performance groups. The Cultural Arts Center will provide opportunities for both youth and adults to express themselves and to share their talents while enriching the quality of life for the community of Franklin and the surrounding Southeastern Wisconsin area.
Conveniently located in the heart of Franklin, the Cultural Arts Center will offer exciting spaces suitable for a variety of uses from live performances, classes and workshops to business, civic and social events.
Funded entirely through private donations and grants, the Franklin Cultural Arts Center will include a 1,000 seat performance theater, a gallery and numerous classroom and meeting spaces. Designed to host larger scale performances than any other suburban theater in Southeastern Wisconsin, the Cultural Arts Center will offer professional performances ranging from musicals and theatrical productions to comedy and dance shows.
As we work towards our primary or longer-term goal, we are actively bringing the arts to the community through a series of visiting artist programs, community based performing groups and featuring the work of local and regional artists. These events provide valuable performance experience for local artist and performers in our community as well as bringing the arts to the community.
