Downtown Nashville
A Place for Art & Shopping
Known as the art colony of the Midwest, Nashville attracts those who create art and those who collect it. Shopping in downtown Nashville takes you to quaint, locally owned shops selling everything from clothing and jewelry to home decor and original arts and crafts. Nature creates the masterpieces just outside Nashville, like at the T.C. Steele State Historic Site, where you’ll see the scenic vistas and majestic landscapes that prompted this famous painter to build his home here.
