Palm Springs Modernism Show & Sale

Presenting a wide range of art and collectibles from the 20th century, the 4-day Palm Springs Modernism Show and Sale is a large and exciting event that attracts more than 150,000 visitors. The fair appeals to collectors, interior designers and the public who enjoy quality items. Pieces can be picked up that are inexpensive, beautiful and unique, and the style appeals to young buyers as well as interested visitors of every age. Around 85 seasoned US and international dealers offer furniture, jewelry, rugs, lighting, photography, vintage clothing and prints with special focus on mid-century design. Launched in 2000, it’s a long-standing and lively fair that takes place twice a year, once in October and once in February, at the same time as Art Palm Springs.
