“We’re proud to bring the unique experiences of the Masters & Makers Trail to the Visitor Center in downtown Franklin,” said Visit Franklin President & CEO Ellie Westman Chin. “Guests can get a taste of what each trail stop has to offer then walk down the street to experience it paired with their meal or as part of a new cocktail. We hope that once people experience a sample of the trail at the Visitor Center, they will visit each of the locations and experience these wonderful places for themselves.”
