It’s summertime here at Franklin (and elsewhere too), and we’ve been busy coordinating our weekly summer photography workshops and bringing together the 2008 McKnight Photography Fellows exhibition. Though we’ve certainly got our hands full - summer means something else here too…time to plan for next year! We’re putting our heads together for another great season of exhibitions-related events and ongoing series of activities for art-lovers (and curious onlookers) of all ages.
