Drier weekend ahead in Cleburne with highs in the low 70s

Friday • Stuffed Animal Sleepover and Storytime — Fri 10:00 AM, 248 SW Johnson Ave., Burleson: Kids bring a stuffed animal for a storytime and sleepover drop-off event in Burleson, about 20 minutes up 174 from Cleburne. • R.I.S.E. Young Adults — Fri 6:30 PM, Cleburne Bible Church: The young adults ministry gathering at Cleburne Bible Church meets Friday evening for its regular get-together. • ASL Night at The Promise — Fri 7:00 PM, Willow Park Baptist Church, 777 Crown Pointe Blvd., Willow Park: This American Sign Language-focused evening at Willow Park Baptist Church is worth the drive west on 20 if that community matters to you. Saturday • Community Sketch Group — Sat 9:00 AM, 405 W. County Road 714, Burleson: A morning sketching session in Burleson for anyone who wants to draw alongside others in a low-key, informal setting. • Wine and Artisan Festival 2026 — Sat 12:00 PM, 302 S. Main St., Cleburne: The festival takes over the south end of Main Street with wine and local artisan vendors starting at noon — good timing if the skies cooperate. • Red Chair Lecture Series — Sat 1:00 PM, 405 W. County Road 714, Burleson: A Saturday afternoon lecture at the same Burleson venue as the morning sketch group, so you could pair the two into one trip north. • BHS Cheer Daddy Daughter Dance — Sat 6:30 PM, 100 Elk Dr, Burleson: Burleson High School's cheer program hosts the annual daddy-daughter dance Saturday evening at the school. Eat and Drink • Our Place Restaurant, 211 S Caddo St, Cleburne: A longtime Cleburne breakfast and lunch spot on Caddo that fits well before heading to the Wine and Artisan Festival a few blocks away Saturday. • Stone Trough, 2849 State Hwy 171, Cleburne: A highly rated local bar out on 171 if you want somewhere to wind down Saturday night after the festival. • Morris Neal's Handy Hamburgers, 200 S Mill St, Cleburne: A classic Cleburne burger spot on Mill Street that has been feeding the town for years and earns its reputation. • Southern Joy Bakery and Bistro, 115 S Main St, Cleburne: Right on Main Street near the festival footprint, a good stop for coffee or a bite before the artisan vendors get busy Saturday afternoon. Get Outside • Cleburne State Park, 5800 Park Rd 21, Cleburne: After Thursday's heavy rain the park will be green and the lake full — Sunday morning is a solid window for a walk or a paddle before any leftover clouds clear out. • Field of Dinosaurs, US-67, Cleburne: The outdoor dinosaur track site along 67 is an easy, free stop that kids and out-of-town guests tend to enjoy more than they expect.
