And yet another film festival for Palm Springs visitors to check out is happening on May 21, 2022.  The Bow Wow Film Festival at the Palm Springs Cultural Center is a one-night only event that will include a VIP Reception along with a number of short films starring man's best friend.  The event will benefit both the Palm Springs Cultural Center and the Palm Springs animal Animal Shelter.  General admission is only $10.  Priority seating and group seating pricing is also available.  

The Palm Springs Cultural Center produces and encourages arts and cultural programs including film festivals, live performances, art installations and lectures.  The Palm Springs Animal Shelter is a public no-kill shelter that helps thousands of animals each year.  Both are worthy causes in my book, so while in town, why not enjoy a fun filled evening while supporting some good local organizations.  

If you're a fan of tiki culture and mid-century modern tiki in particular, being in Palm springs on Sunday, April 17 is a must. The bi-annual Alohana Spring event is a colorful, jam-packed tiki-themed event that features tiki cocktails, Hula dancers, a market filled with tiki-themed merchandise plus beautiful art, crafts, vintage and handmade apparel and jewelry and more. This event is a celebration of tiki culture that can't be missed. https://www.facebook.com/alohanapalmsprings/
