A MAGIC WEEK OF ARCHITECTURE, STYLE AND FUN!
Our week together starts with an architecture tour with local celebrity Kurt Cyr of Palm Springs Mod Squad, as he takes us on a tour of the iconic Desert Modern architecture and walk inside an original home as we discover what it is like to live a modern life in a mid-century modern home in Palm Springs.
In true Palm Springs fashion, we'll stop for a martini or two! There, Kurt will share his martini knowledge with us and discover why martinis are shaken and not stirred and how this drink became the signature cocktail of the era.
Not only will we enjoy an intimate shopping experience wandering through the design district and visit a range or galleries, artesian workshops and vintage furnishing stores, but also be taken on a private tour of Frank Sinatra's Twin Palms Estate.
Kate Hansen from Kate Hansen Photography will be hosting a private workshop on photography tips and tricks where we can then put these new skills into practice as we visit Pioneertown, Joshua Tree or Salvation Mountain. There will also be an opportunity to book in for a photoshoot with Kate if you are after new headshots for your content marketing! Just think of the amazing backdrops available! Kate will be documenting the entire trip and you will be able to purchase the full gallery once we return home.
Take advantage of ModAutumn (mini Modernism Week) and join us on an exclusive trip that will be offered to 8 people who are after an inspiring opportunity to step away from work and bring back that creative spark. This could be an up-levelling of your education as well as your personal development by spending an amazing week away with creative, like-minded people!
