We had a wonderful time yesterday at the Franklin County NC Senior Services Department of Aging with guest painting teacher Christine Melcher for our painting class. Folks learned the basics of working with oil and how much fun the medium can be. We're looking forward to the next class. Stay tuned!

This is just a PSA to all artists of Franklin County because we see this a lot, if you're a Facebook user and depend on your Facebook to drive traffic and engagement for your business then you need to make sure you have registered a profile username with Facebook. **The steps to do that are below**.

Your profile id defaults to a 14 digit number upon account creation. If you do not take the step to change that to a username (like "artsinfranklin" for example) then no one is able to tag you in posts. We also often find that the profile name of the page is unsearchable as well if no username is set. That dramatically impacts your ability to engage with the public, make sales and drive engagement. It also impacts our ability to tag you in marketing materials. So take a look at your profile URL and get it fixed if you need to!

The ACFC Board took a trip out to Edward Best Elementary School today to drop off recorders for the 4th grade music class. Each student will receive a recorder and take a field trip to the North Carolina Symphony later in the year!

Music education is critical to our children’s development because it boosts classroom engagement, fosters creativity beyond the classroom, builds hand eye coordination and enhances important cognitive development. ACFC is committed to helping the children of Franklin county and we we want to thank Edward Best Elementary Principal Katie Renze-Beer and Music Teacher Nancy Stover for coordinating with us on this project. We look forward to doing more.
