About our Festival
Bigger and better in year three
The Cleburne Arts Festival, founded by Tom Burkett, began as a way to celebrate local artists and bring the community together through creativity. Now in its third year, the festival continues to grow, highlighting the talent and artistic spirit of Cleburne.
JN Long Cultural Arts Center is excited to carry this tradition forward and expand the festival’s impact. Under the leadership of Executive Director Brittany Lewis, JN Long is working to become the central hub for artists in Cleburne—a place where creativity thrives, connections are made, and the arts community continues to flourish.
By hosting the festival at JN Long, we are building on its strong foundation and creating even more opportunities for artists and visitors to engage with the arts. We look forward to welcoming you to this next chapter of the Cleburne Arts Festival!
