The 12th annual Palm Springs Modernism Fall Show returns during Modernism Week – October. The Fall Show will feature 40 premier national exhibitors offering decorative and fine arts, representing all design movements of the 20th century and compelling 21st century contemporary art and design. This event, which runs October 16-18, will be held in the Palm Springs Convention Center, located at 277 North Avenida Caballeros in Palm Springs, California.
The show, which will feature several new dealers and audience-favorite returning dealers, is a more intimate version of the popular Palm Springs Modernism Show held annually in February.
On Friday evening, October 16, attendees are invited to attend the festive Opening Night Party and Early Buying Preview Reception at the Fall Show. The Friday night party is the prime opportunity for attendees to shop directly from dealers before the show opens to the public on Saturday. Tickets are available in advance for $95 at modernismweek.com or at the door for $110 and include a wine reception with hors d’oeuvres, free parking and daily re-entry to the show.
Weekend show hours are Saturday, October 17, from 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. and Sunday, October 18, from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Tickets are $30, which allow return entry all weekend, and may be purchased in advance at modernismweek.com or at the door.
At this year’s Fall Show, Presenting Sponsor Airstream Inland Empire will provide free tours of the 2027 Airstream International Travel Trailer on each day of the show. Design-centric and filled with serene comfort, the International Travel Trailer features clean, modern lines, earthy wood tones and cool blues in the fabrics, and natural seashore textures throughout. It has an expansive galley with premium appliances and fixtures and a rear hatch option that brings the outdoors in, making it the perfect recreational vehicle for escaping the day-to-day.
“The Palm Springs Modernism Show continues to be a premier gathering for designers and design lovers, offering a rare opportunity for people to connect with collectors and dealers from around the world,” said Rosemary Krieger, CEO of Dolphin Promotions. “This fall we are excited to welcome back our Presenting Sponsor Airstream Inland Empire and introduce new dealers to the community. The marriage of vintage 20th century items with 21st century designs offer a wide appeal to our supporters in the Coachella Valley, and we look forward to sharing this show with our attendees.”
