Antiques & Art Abound

Today, the town of Florence still maintains a small-town, down-to-earth family feel. Head to historic downtown Florence for an afternoon of browsing, shopping, and dining. Boasting numerous antique stores and art galleries and several restaurants and specialty shops, modern-day treasure hunters will love this oasis of antiques and art. Almost every nook and cranny of these antique stores is filled with treasures. From vintage postcards and toys to collectible dishes and books, each store has its own unique personality. Shoppers can view and purchase artwork in various media, including oil paintings, photography, jewelry, pottery, and more. Stop into one of the downtown galleries to view displays and works by local artists and, if you’re lucky, catch an artist in action creating their next masterpiece.
