Friends of Millville encourages everyone to participate in local government. You don’t have to get up and speak during the public comments section of the meeting. Just come and show support for the positive direction our city is going. And feel free to speak up when you feel the city is not being responsive to needs of the community.

Friends of Millville encourages you to come out for the 3rd Friday festivities every month. The many galleries are open late. We have a variety of shoppes and restaurants. This is a great time for the entire family.
