Palm Springs Art Museum — The Air-Conditioned Afternoon We Default To
When the desert hits triple digits, we head straight to the art museum.
Our experience
It's smaller than you might expect, which we actually love — you can see the whole collection in two unhurried hours. The mid-century design wing is a perfect complement to the architecture you've been admiring outside, and the rotating exhibits punch above their weight. Free admission on Thursday evenings turns it into a low-key social outing rather than just a museum stop.
