Rainy Days and Artsy Adventures

Howdy, Fort Worth! This week will be nice and rainy — perfect weather for staying in. If you do feel like going out, we’d visit the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth to watch Sugarcane or the Kimbell Art Museum to see the Battle of Pavia Tapestries! There’s also a few concerts going on you might want to attend. Whatever you do, take a jacket and umbrella, if possible!
