Palm Springs Modernism Week: ( or week+ since it is 10 days long!) It all happens February 13-23, 2014 when the world comes to admire what we here locally take for granted everyday. This amazing event continues to grow and expand in all directions. Last year the event brought in vintage travel trailers and expanded beyond Palm Springs into the Palm Desert neighborhoods with fifties architecture.
The 14th annual Palm Springs Modernism Show and Sale will be held at the Convention Center, located On Amado and Avendia Caballeros, with over 80 exhibitors showing their treasures and hoping to make them YOURS!
The show -which could possibly be credited with starting the whole modernism week (but I am not an expert on the founding of the event!) is just the tip of the iceberg. The website for the event lists no less than 32 pages of events! From lectures, to films, to house tours, bus tours and exhibits. Everyone is getting in on the excitement with exhibits at the Palm Springs library to lectures in hotel ballrooms. Fitting it all in will be your biggest challenge.
Perhaps the best part of Modernism week is it takes place in the sunshine of Palm Springs. This will no doubt please the some 40,000 expected visitors, from all parts of the world, who may not see temps like these until Summertime.
