This is a historic theater that the Franklin Historical Society is renovating. Classic movies such as White Christmas, Christmas Vacation, Mary Poppins, Young Frankenstein, Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade, are some of the movies I've seen. Admission is $5. Cans of Coke products are $1 and popcorn is cheap too. A date night won't cost $20. A night with the family could be done for $30 easily or so.They have live concerts too and I've heard they had a vaudeville show. I've even attending a ghost hunting session after a movie.There's some live comedy before the evening shows with "Short Attention Span Theater", old cartoons, the signing of the Star Spangled Banner, and some quaint Americana. Don't be jaded and just enjoy the activities.

What a wonderful experience. We were there for the Beer and Bluegrass Festival in Franklin. the fact that they have restored this theater is amazing. Just a real step back in time. Wish it were here in our town in Lawrenceburg KY.

If you happen to be traveling thru Franklin, Indiana and want an opportunity to relive your childhood, make it a point to see a film at the historic Artcraft theater. Built in 1923, the theater is run by volunteers and shows classic films that have to be at least ten years old or older. The admission is very reasonable, the popcorn is "locally grown and internationally known" and the atmosphere is just like you might remember if you grew up in the 50's and 60's. You will not be disappointed !!

The Artcraft is a top-notch place to go to experience the golden age of movies and entertainment. We just can't rave enough about this theater. From Christmas classics to movies like Casablanca, the Artcraft is the perfect night out. Tickets are just $5 for adults and the "Big Date" popcorn deal is only $9 for jumbo popcorn and two drinks. The theater itself is truly a piece of art and a throwback to the days before television and cookie cutter mega theaters. There's only one giant screen here and somewhere around 600 seats (all of which are the big, squeaky, comfy seats everyone over 50 will remember). In addition to the feature film, you'll also see a cartoon, sing the Star Spangled Banner, and (on Saturday nights) experience prize drawings from the prize wheel. The courteous volunteers will forewarn you not to stare directly into the prize wheel or you'll be "mesmerized". As you can tell, we love this place. The only thing we don't get is why this theater isn't sold out every single weekend. Try it one time and you'll be hooked - it really is that big of a deal.

Come back to your youth at the HIstoric Artcraft Theatre just north of the square in FranklinClassic films are shown on most Friday and Saturday nights a comical introduction and cartoon preceded the film. Special entertainment productions are also scheduled throughout the year. And do not pass up the concession stand where the popcorn is theatre style and popped fresh. Over recent years the interior have been returned to its original glory with new seats....For safety sake

The best time I have had in a long time. A very Historic theatre with lots of charm. Old movies on the big screen, cheap popcorn, and reasonable drinks are the best. A great date night for my wife and I.

The Artcraft shows vintage movies on weekends. They have an introduction with a skit, pass out prizes, have viewers stand to sing the National Anthem, and show a vintage cartoon before the feature. The theatre itself is a beautiful, restored art deco style movie theatre from our past. They also occasionally have live performances. Visitors to Franklin should not miss this experience.

I love the Historic Artcraft Theatre. They have refurbished it, and I believe it is run by volunteers. They show old movies (and not so old movies July 25, 2014 is Back to the Future) They are doing Sunset Boulevard next year I hear. Go to their website and there will be a list of the years movies. I warn you now they aren't always easy to get a ticket. They sell out pretty quick, especially the Christmas movies. The prices are very affordable and you also get to see a cartoon before the movie. I love this theatre. Franklin has a true prize here and I am so happy they refurbished it for classic movies. A++++++++++++++++ Franklin Historical Society. We drive about 3 hours away just to see your classic movies!

You choose the decade. 1920s (Art Deco Theatre) 1930s (Prize Wheel for give away drawings) 1940s (Star Spangled Banner film to sing along to) or 1950s (Bugs Bunny Cartoon). The movies are shown "reel to reel" with few exceptions. All movies are "Classic" ranging from Harold Lloyd silent films to the 10 yr old ELF. What is utterly charming and unique about this place is the people who run it. They are all volunteers. A group of people happy to be there and to be a part of restoring this 90 year old gem. Bring the right attitude and you will be greeted warmly and be shown a wonderful and inexpensive evening.

Loved the old theatre and the the people working there were GREAT. We were to late to see the show but we were allowed to walk in and see it.
