Main Street Festival: Franklin, TN


Join me in historic downtown Franklin, Tennessee on Saturday April 23rd (10am-9pm) and Sunday April 24th (11am-6pm) for the greatly anticipated Main Street Festival!

Festivities for this annual event include live music on 2 separate stages, delicious food (more than 25 vendors), beer, wine, a juried arts and craft show, inflatables for the kids, and a wide variety of local vendors, including yours truly! I'll be binding books as usual, so come on by, say hi, and witness my craft of hand bookbinding!

*This is perhaps the largest festival in Franklin of the year and the crowd is anticipated to exceed 120,000 visitors, so please consider carpooling & walking a few blocks. There will be shuttles at Franklin High School and Harlinsdale Farm ($1 each way) which will save those legs! Visit the link above for more information on shuttle options.
