Annual Competitions

This year FACLT will be working along with the Franklin Arts Festival to enhance this annual competition; therefore local artists will be able to enter the Franklin Arts Festival competion instead of one presented by FACLT.

More information and links to the Franklin Arts Festival will be published here soon- their website is still under construction at this point. 

If you have any inquiries about the festival please feel free to contact us 09 238 8899 or send an email to info.fact@xtra.co.nz
