There's so much going on in our area that you've just got to come for a visit (or several)! Think art, think music, think gardens, wine and festivals. Check out the stories below and all the event links to the right.
Saturday, May 15, is the 7th Annual Saluda Arts and Music Festival. It's a free street festival filled with live music, food, artist demonstrations, a children's art tent, and of course, the great atmosphere of a small mountain town. The fun continues after the festival on the deck of the Saluda Wine & Cheese Market on Main St.

Sneak a Peak at Fabulous Private Gardens during Art In Bloom Garden Tours May 22-23
This is the first opportunity we've had to explore the fabulous gardens of six private homes in the Tryon area. Each garden will be staffed by a master gardener and have a local artist there to paint the landscape. Each of the gardens has a different approach, so you can get great ideas and discuss them with a master gardener before you make changes to your own garden. The paintings from the weekend will be sold at the "Celebrating the Arts and Gardens" reception on Sunday. Come, spend the weekend and take your time touring these gardens and enjoying the scenic beauty of our area. Click for details on tickets for the tour and reception. Read More...
