Visit Downtown
The county’s first (legal) brewery, rooftop dining, live jazz, performing arts, the Saturday farmers' market, and annual arts and music festivals... Downtown Clayton is where it’s happening! We have mom-and-pop shops that have flourished for decades and new businesses bringing even more variety into downtown. Stroll along our sculpture trail, enjoy a community garden, shop, dine and sip - all in Downtown Clayton.
