The Belknap Mill is proud to present its first curated exhibit, Laconia’s Franco-American Heritage as the first in its new Laconia’s Legacy Series. Personal reflections of the traditions, values, and culture of Franco-Americans in Laconia are shared by several current residents with Franco-American histories.

Exhibit participants will be in attendance and traditional Franco-American dishes will be available to sample. For the safety of all masks are required for all programs held indoors at the Mill.

The Franco-American Heritage Exhibit was completed with sponsorship from Give a Salute Publishing, Misiaszek Turpin, pllc. and Wescott Law, PA. The storyboards and photo boards were mounted with assistance from Piedmont Print & Frame and created with assistance from Warren Huse, Laconia Historical & Museum Society.
