The mission of the Franklin County Arts Alliance is to promote awareness of the visual and performing arts in Franklin County and surrounding areas, and to encourage arts education.

The Franklin County Arts Alliance has been enhancing the artistic endeavors in Franklin County since 1995. Our 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization has provided artistic opportunities for all ages.

In 2018, the FCAA opened the Gallery On Main. This new space allowed us to better showcase our amazing local artists, add new class opportunities, and continue engaging our youth in fun learning experiences.

The expansion also allowed the addition of a full-service custom framing facility. The frame shop offers repurposed frames as well as new frames and mats.
