Civic League 1928
In 1928, activities included an orchestra of fifty pieces, art exhibits, drama club, gym classes for all, motion pictures, Boy Scout assistance, health association, and charity events. There were 80 organizations using the two buildings.
They still exist, nearly like the photo above, which I found in a marketing pamphlet for the town which was given out by the Framingham Cooperative Bank.
There once was a swimming pool, which was filled in many years ago. The stage and hall offer a fine place for a concert, even today.

The Framingham Civic League is still alive and well! A few notes: The pool structure is still intact. A gymnasium floor was built above the pool with post & beam construction.
The beautiful auditorium has all the original molding and is a sight to see! The current website is http://www.civicleague.net. This a a great part of Framingham History which still works with many local organizations and brings the community together!
