Built ca. 1807, the Old Franklin Schoolhouse served as a one-room schoolhouse until the 1870s, then used as a private home by an Irish cobbler. A civic league formed in 1901 to rescue the building and use it as a clubhouse from which to improve the local community. It remains owned and maintained by this private non-profit, the Borough Improvement League, and serves a number of community purposes.
From meeting space for like-minded non-profits, space for fundraisers, concerts, performance space, private event rentals, town events, and more. Open upon request for historical tours and to view our new art space, "Transformations Gallery." Contact us at [email protected].
