The Margaret Lefranc Art Foundation exists to continue the legacy of Lefranc, who received the 1996 Governor’s Award for Excellence, by building the Margaret Lefranc Art Museum for the community honoring her name.

Because Lefranc began her art career by drawing at the age of 6, the museum will also begin offering drawing classes to no younger than 7-year-old children in grade school, high school, and adults in the community to better their life in various occupations because “drawing isn’t just for art.” Eventually, the Margaret Lefranc Art Museum anticipates partnering with local teachers and professors to offer high school and college students the various art and business life skills involved in running and operating a museum where they can earn a beginning certification. These learned skills can transfer into any number of art careers, or advanced continuing education, or into the workforce of occupations in the business world where students and adults can more accurately share new ideas by drawing their concepts to employers.
