Saline Overview
Saline combines a small town atmosphere with nearness to "big city" services, such as education, shopping, dining, collegiate and major league sports and health care. The city's downtown shopping district is a collection of locally-owned retailers and restaurants, with names like Cobblestone Rose (a home interior store), Reincarnations Resale, and Brecon Grille, a traditional English-style pub/restaurant. There's also a weekly farmers' market, which sets up on Saturdays year-round.
Saline has a lively arts and cultural community for a town of its size. In addition to being the home of the annual Celtic Festival, a celebration of the city's Welsh heritage that draws visitors from all over the United States, Saline is home to the Saline Fiddlers, a nationally-recognized blue grass group, and a community arts center.
