Livestock Foundation is thrilled to support 2024 Community Grant recipient Franklin Stage Company's Painting of Chapel Hall Facade project.
Franklin Stage Companyʼs dual mission is to produce professional, admission-free theater that brings together audiences and artists to create community and celebrate the enduring power of stories; and to ensure the preservation of Chapel Hall, a 3-story 19th-century Greek revival building built in 1853 and the Company’s historic home, as both an architectural treasure and a center of community activity. The company was founded on the principle that great theater should be accessible to all, and free admission ensures that all are welcome, regardless of economic circumstance. They believe that theater strongly rooted in its community has a vital role to play in bridging its divisions. Franklin Stage Company will utilize their grant to paint the Southwest facade and entrance of their architecturally important and historic theater building. Franklin Stage Companyʼs Chapel Hall is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as part of Franklinʼs historic village district.
Franklin Stage Company's 2024 season begins on July 5 with Trouble in Mind, Alice Childress’s illuminating, moving, and surprisingly funny play set during rehearsals for a Broadway-bound play where harsh truths that spill out into the rehearsal room may cost the actors the work they so desperately need.
You can learn more about Trouble in Mind and the rest of their captivating season, which includes Calpulli Mexican Dance Company, Yolanda Bush and the Cool Water Collective, and An Iliad, and reserve tickets at franklinstagecompany.org.

We received many impressive applications from organizations across the county, making for a difficult decision. Four organizations were chosen to receive a $5,000 grant to support their proposed projects.
Livestock Foundation’s Community Grant Program provides project-based financial support to local organizations that share our goal to protect and promote the human, economic, and natural resources of Delaware County New York. The grant program was created to inspire collaboration amongst local organizations in order to further our shared missions.
We encourage all eligible Delaware County based nonprofit organizations to apply for our next round of applications which will open in January 2025.
