Franklin Fundraiser
Gala/Party for Friends of Franklin Fine Arts CenterApr 27, 2025 from 6:00 PM to 10:30 PM
Dear Neighbor,
We’re thrilled to announce that Franklin Fine Arts, a Chicago Public School, will host its Annual Spring Fundraiser on Saturday, April 27th at The Metropolitan—and we need your help to make it a success!
The funds raised go directly toward enriching our students’ artistic and academic experiences—upgrading our stage, tuning guitars, dry-cleaning costumes, and so much more. Your support helps us provide the high-quality arts education that makes Franklin so special.
We hope you’ll consider donating an item or experience to our auction.
Why Support Franklin Fine Arts School?
Franklin Fine Arts Center is the city’s only citywide magnet school for the arts. It’s a CPS Level 1+ school and was featured on The Today Show. This year, we also won the City Championship in flag football. Franklin serves a diverse student body—with over 50% low-income families—and remains committed to education equity, offering all Chicago children the chance to receive a top-tier academic and arts education at no cost.
