Live like a local! Walk Palm Canyon Drive and the Palm Springs Village Fest for a lively evening of art, entertainment, and delicious eats! This beloved event, held every Thursday in the heart of Palm Springs, has plenty to offer everyone. Taste international food, browse artists and artisans, and enjoy fresh fruits, vegetables, and sweets.
As a smaller community known internationally for its art and culture, art events are a part of life in the desert. Admission is free every Thursday from 5:00-7:00 pm, and is a fantastic way to immerse yourself in the world of art and culture.
While smaller in scope than the 11-day festival held annually each February, the October event offers more than 50 events during 4-days, including several free and low-cost programs. Hallmarks of Modernism Week events are the inspirational and educational tours of neighborhoods, significant buildings, and residences.
Signature events include Premier Double Decker Architectural Bus Tour, tours of Frank Sinatra’s Twin Palms estate, the Palm Springs Modernism Show, architectural walking and biking tours, tours of the historic Annenberg Estate at Sunnylands, parties, and a special series of compelling and informative talks. A portion of ticket proceeds benefit Modernism Week (a non-profit organization) and other local preservation, neighborhood and community groups.
