Franktown Festival of Lights, Williamson County’s only drive-thru light display featuring a full mile of holiday illumination, was unwrapped with a preview party on November 20.
The month-plus-long dazzling light display opened to the public on November 22. It will run through December 29, offering daily viewings of the light spectacle from 6 - 10 p.m. CST. Conveniently located at the Williamson County Ag Center, the affordable $25 per car will help support Franktown Open Hearts, a local organization serving inner city youth and their families.
Tickets can be purchased in advance or at the gate, and more informations is available at franktownlights.com.
Currently working with over 150 inner city youth ages 8-18, Franktown Open Hearts extends academic assistance, mentoring, nutrition, recreation and vocational training. In an effort to further serve the families, they serve multiple meals every week, while also providing transportation. Founded in 2005, Franktown Open Hearts aims to inspire, empower, and equip at-risk youth in Franklin.
