There’s more to this weekend than Stagecoach, amazing as that music festival is. This Saturday, April 27, marks a favorite event of owners of real estate properties in Palm Desert—the Art Party Palm Desert. The event, which takes place from 11 am – 4 pm, offers everyone a chance to be an artist and to experience some unforgettable performances. Sponsored by Newman’s Own Foundation, the event will take place at the Palm Springs Art Museum—a must see for those considering Palm Springs homes for sale.
The Art Party Palm Desert will inspire art lovers in several ways—not only by what can be seen at this original art event, but in the ways that attendees can participate. Whether you watch professional artists demonstrate their craft, witness live performances in the Faye Sarkowsky Sculpture Garden or play with new media while making your own original masterpieces in the Annette Bloch Education Wing, you’ll enjoy the experience on many levels. And when you see how vibrant the desert art communities are, you may quickly find yourself browsing real estate properties in Palm Desert and the surrounding cities.
