Craige Campbell February 8, 2016Palm Springs Fine Art Fair!
The fifth annual Palm Springs Fine Art Fair returns to an eager audience. PSFAF is strategically scheduled over the extended President’s Day Weekend coinciding with Palm Springs Modernism Week at the height of the Coachella Valley’s season. The PSFAF and Modernism Week turn the Desert into a cultural mecca over this weekend, attracting over 14,000 acquisition oriented art lovers to the Fair in 2015. The City of Palm Springs announced in 2015, that this President’s Day weekend set a record as the largest number tourists visiting in its history. The results were stunning at PSFAF, with hundreds of art works finding new homes and robust art sales recorded by a majority of the 66 exhibiting galleries.
