Our Supporting Cast Volunteers - they get the job done!

Join our Supporting Cast Volunteer group with Franklin Heritage, Inc. at The Historic Artcraft Theatre, and help your community succeed.  From popping popcorn, to salvaging properties, or decorating for the holidays, there are volunteer opportunities for everyone!   As a volunteer you're a part of a group of people that make a difference in Franklin and Johnson County.  Our volunteers run the movies at the Artcraft, assist with field trips, help at concerts, work at Madison Street Salvage, and that's just the tip of the iceberg!

We have over a LOT of movies, events, field trips, and parties to choose from each year so there is plenty to do!  Volunteers must be at least 13 years old to work with us- though our oldest volunteer is past 90!   You can volunteer at the Artcraft (a great place for families to volunteer together) or at Madison Street Salvage (ages 16+).   Questions?   Email us at [email protected]
