Teche Theatre facelift

LED lighting was being installed on the marquee of the historic Teche Theatre Tuesday. With state funding secured by Rep. Sam Jones through the City of Franklin, the work was approved by the Franklin Historic District Commission, which approved the LED lighting in lieu of traditional neon to keep the same appearance. The showcase boxes will also be relighted, and fluorescent lighting will be LED also. There will be a lighting ceremony in early-to-mid September.
