ABOUT DOWNTOWN MODERNISM

At every show, over 90 vintage dealers and more than 1500 collectors and enthusiasts sacrifice precious shuteye for a spot in line outside the Modernica factory gates, arriving as soon as the gates open in hopes of taking home some rare vintage finds. Vendors travel downtown from in and around Southern California, Oakland, Seattle, Salt Lake City, and sometimes even farther, hauling their best furniture, lighting, decor, and one-off pieces of merchandise to showcase.

The first show was held in June 2013 featuring 50 vintage dealers and hosted by actor Andy Dick.
