Modernism Week in Palm Springs 


Feb, 2017


Palm Springs has one of the largest selections of mid-century modern homes and the artwork to fill them. Every year in February, the annual “Modernism Week” takes place with highlights that include architecture, art, design and then some.

The Palm Springs Fine Art Fair also takes place during February, this year Feb 17th – 19th.  Here you will find everything from local galleries to those from Canada, Mexico and Europe sharing their hand selected artists and becoming part of the vibrate art community in the Valley.  

There are specific happenings organized and you can find the schedule and details here
www.modernismweek.com 

I love how everything in Palm Springs excites me! I’m enveloped in colour, design, art, beauty and everyone there feels that vibe!  Vibe really is the perfect word to describe how this feels, a mid-century modern aesthetic vibe!

So, I thought I would share some of the “vibe” I feel while in Palm Springs with the photos below.  I hope it inspires you to find your “Art of Living” wherever you are.

Cheers, MC

Outdoor dining under the stars at the award winning Copley's on Palm Canyon is a must experience.  

I highly recommend this appetizer....Tuna Tartar, Avocado, Green Onion Tossed in Ginger Soy Dressing
Presented In A Sesame Miso Shell, Topped with Tobiko Caviar.

Greg, one of the owners greets you at the front and is very accommodating when calling for your reservations.  Visit the website to start your menu planning.

849 Restaurant & Lounge is a visual delight both inside and out. A perfect spot to sip a martini or the cocktail of choice by many designers, The Aviation.  Take a moment to sneak into each room and enjoy the colour themes. www.EIGHT4NINE.COM

Japanese artist,  Yoshitomo Nara created this fiberglass sculpture titled YOUR DOG in 2002
 
This adorable pup greets you as you walk into the Palm Springs Art Museum. This as you can imagine is one of my favorite places to visit and when it comes to a collection of Contemporary art and sculpture this museum stands as one of my favorite to date. I will be sharing more on art in Palm Springs in a separate post but here are a few photos to tease.

Drop into Just Modern for some fun gift and home ideas. These bamboo appetizer plates made their way home with me among a few other items..

Best Happy Hour in town... Lulu Bistro.

A room  full of colourfuly clothed locals and tourist alike sipping fun drinks, eating fresh, trendy delish food plated as beautifully as it eats. A perfect place to drop into on a Thursday night after taking advantage of the free museum visit or  waltzing  through the Palm Canyon street fest.


Palm Springs Vibe at it's best! My best tip...sit at the bar for some lively convo and to meet lots of fun people.

Cheers, MC
