The Circle Theatre in downtown Fort Worth is an exciting place to catch a show. They've been around since 1981 and produce about six plays a year, covering many themes and genres. They've put on tremendous contemporary plays like Opus, Something Intangible, and The Great American Trailer Park Musical. What's neat is that the shows are performed in front of a small audience of only 125 guests, making for a truly intimate and unique experience.

The Kimbell Art Museum is truly remarkable and worth checking out. The way the building has been designed and constructed is awe-inspiring, and it's fantastic to see so many incredible pieces of art in one place. The collection is curated well, with works from some of the most renowned artists in history, like Picasso, Caravaggio, Rembrandt, and Monet. It's a must-visit for any art lover or anyone who appreciates excellent architecture. The museum's design by Louis Kahn is breathtaking, with vaulted ceilings and slit-like skylights that allow natural light to illuminate the space and showcase the building's beauty. The museum's landscaping is also noteworthy, with a pool-lined yard and a grove of Yaopon holly trees that add to the overall aesthetic. There's even a library with over 42,000 volumes for research. With a full schedule of public programs like symposia, lectures, films, and workshops, the Kimbell Art Museum is a real treasure.
