Volunteer With Us
Every event, every festival and every unforgettable downtown experience starts with people who care.
As a Discover Downtown Franklin volunteer, you can play an important role in bringing our community together while meeting new people, supporting local businesses and helping create the events that make Franklin such a special place to live, work and visit. Whether you can volunteer once a year or throughout the season, there is a place for you on our team.
Volunteer opportunities are available for ages 14 and older (with parental permission for minors) and include everything from the Franklin Farmers Market and Strawberries on the Square to Hops & Vines, Holiday Lighting, Winter Market and many other community events. We provide guidance, support and a welcoming environment so you can volunteer with confidence.
If you are ready to make a difference, we would love to have you join the Discover Downtown Franklin Volunteer Team.
