New York and Atlanta families came together on Saturday, February 24th, for an exclusive screening of Apple TV+’s “Snoopy Presents: Welcome Home, Franklin” at AMC Theaters. Both screenings featured heartwarming introductions of Franklin Armstrong, the first Black character introduced in the iconic “Peanuts” universe. Now, nearly 55 years later, we celebrate the wonderful journey of Franklin as he stars in his very own animated special, “Snoopy Presents: Welcome Home, Franklin” presented by Apple TV+.
