Palm Springs Modernism Week

Modernism Week is a signature annual event to celebrate midcentury modern design, architecture, art, and culture. The festival takes place in February in the Palm Springs area of Southern California. Modernism Week features events such as the Modernism Show & Sale, Signature Home Tours, films, lectures, parties, live music, walking tours, and garden tours.

Studio Traveler and Preservation Greensboro are partnering to offer an excursion to Palm Springs for five fabulous days and nights during Modernism Week. Come with us to attend the programing and other ‘not to be missed’ architectural activities of this celebration of Modern architecture. This trip is being “curated” by Adeline Talbot of Studio Traveler, along with Benjamin Briggs, executive director of Preservation Greensboro.

The schedule for the Modernism Week 2018 activities won’t be released until late October with tickets sold on November 1.  Individual event tickets will go quickly so Studioo Traveler is working to arrange plans.  Our tour opportunities include four half-day walking tours in and around Palm Springs.

We’re holding a select number of rooms at the retro fab Ace Hotel and we’ve lined up additional fun activities for participants such as dinners, a reception in a private home, guided tours at The Palm Springs Art Museum and The Architecture and Design Center,  and special programming by The Palm Springs Historical Society.  As those who travel with us know, transportation to all scheduled events will be provided.
